Information about "Kanonkop Kadette Cape Blend 2023"
The Kanonkop Kadette Cape Blend 2023 commands attention with its vibrant ruby tone and a bouquet that enchants the senses. Fragrant notes of red currants, juicy cherries, delicate spices of cinnamon and clove, paired with alluring chocolate nuances, flow gracefully onto a lively palate. Indulge in delightful raspberry hints that linger. Its structure is balanced, showcasing lively acidity alongside a dry and engaging finish. Tannins provide firmness yet remain luxuriantly silky, marking the wine's character. This Cape Blend features 33% Pinotage, along with 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot, showcasing a harmonious blend.
Kanonkop derives its name from a 'Kopje' (little hill), where a cannon was discharged in the 17th century to signal farmers of approaching ships laden with goods, including bountiful wines.
Die Trauben für den Kanonkop Kadette stammen von fünf bis 30 Jahre alten Reben. Die Trauben wurden nach der Lese und nach sorgfältiger Auswahl drei bis fünf Tage lang auf der Haut in offenen Gärbottichen unter täglich zweimaligem "Punch Down" fermentiert. Nach Abschluss der Gärung reifte der Wein 12 Monate lang in zweit- und drittbefüllten französischen Nevers-Eichenfässern.
