Information about "De Trafford Cabernet Sauvignon 2020"
The De Trafford Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 showcases a dazzling ruby hue, unfolding an intricate bouquet of red berries, aromatic fynbos, and nuances of tomato leaf intertwined with earthy spices. Elegant yet robust, this wine offers exceptional structure, revealing a tapestry of fruitcake, ripe berries, alluring spices, and subtle nutty hints on the palate. The long finish is profoundly enjoyable, embodying the classic dry style that exemplifies sophistication. This wine boasts the concentration and depth one seeks from a prestigious estate in the Helderberg Mountains.
The grapes were hand-picked and destemmed manually, then crushed into open two-ton tanks. The juice underwent spontaneous fermentation at 30°C with natural yeast cultures, involving two to three 'punchdowns' daily. Post fermentation, the wine was pressed directly into barrels, a third of which were new French oak. The wine matured for 22 months before being bottled by hand without filtration.
