Product information "Stellenbosch Reserve Merlot 2022"
The Rust en Vrede Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is the epitome of a first-class Helderberg Cabernet from Stellenbosch. Its complex and beguiling bouquet of blackberries and currants, aromatic tobacco leaves, fragrant forest soil. The graphite and fine smokiness are a real treat, and the delicious nuances of taste extend to the concentrated and full-bodied palate, where well-integrated tannin, fine spices and fine oak wood notes perfectly round off the experience. The finish presents itself tight and fresh with captivating fruit complexity! A masterly Cabernet Sauvignon!

Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed in stainless steel tanks, the malolactic fermentation took place in the barrel. Finally, the wine matured for 22 months in French oak, 50% of which was new wood.
