Product information "Kyburg Cabernet Sauvignon 2011"
The Kyburg Cabernet Sauvignon presents itself in a classic style in a deep dark red in the glass and exudes beguiling aromas of ripe fruit and blackcurrants as well as subtle hints of tobacco leaves, which contribute wonderfully to the complexity of this wine. There are also delicious hints of dark chocolate and mint in the glass. Its tight tannin structure provides excellent length and complex depth, and its finish is long and elegant.

The grapes for the Kyburg Cabernet Sauvignon were harvested by hand with great care and subjected to a four-day cold soaking phase upon arrival in the cellar. After pressing, fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was aged for 12 months in French barriques, 20% of which were new wood and 80% second barrels.
