Product information "Neil Ellis Jonkershoek Cabernet Sauvignon 2018"
The Neil Ellis Jonkershoek Cabernet Sauvignon is the flagship of the Neil Ellis Cabernets. A wine of unmistakable balance between elegance and fruit. With an intense dark colour in the glass, it presents a deep and complex bouquet of black and blue berries, combined with beguiling aromas of fine cedar wood and subtle hints of mint. On the palate it is extremely soft and rich with a fine but dense tannin structure. Ripe and soft tannins with a hearty expression round off this first-class drop in a wonderful way. An absolute pleasure experience!

The fermentation of the grapes was first carried out in stainless steel tanks, with final malolactic fermentation in new French oak. The wine then matured for 18 months in 100% new French barriques.
