Information about "Restless River Main Road & Dignity Cabernet Sauvignon 2020"
Located in the picturesque Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, Restless River boasts vineyards at 400 meters elevation, just 5 km from the refreshing Atlantic Ocean. The Restless River Main Road & Dignity Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 is an intricate and refined wine, bursting with aromatics of black and red currants, enhanced by notes of graphite, tobacco leaves, and a touch of cedarwood. Its mineral character and structured tannins lend it remarkable depth and a lasting finish. This wine is a true reflection of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley terroir, benefiting from a cool climate that perfectly balances ripe fruits with vibrant acidity.
The hand-selected grapes are pressed in basket presses and fermented with indigenous yeast. The wine matures for 22 months in 225-liter French oak barrels, of which 20% are new oak, creating a balanced oak influence that enhances its natural character.
