Information about "Van Loveren Christiena Trousseau Cabernet Sauvignon 2022"
The Van Loveren Christiena Trousseau Cabernet Sauvignon captivates with a rich bouquet of ripe plum, blackcurrant, and blackberry, complemented by subtle vanilla notes. Its exceptional depth and power are matched by elegant balance and silky tannins, culminating in a long finish. This well-balanced Cabernet Sauvignon from premier sites showcases a refined fruit concentration enriched with hints of dark chocolate, tobacco, and cloves.
The grapes for this Cabernet Sauvignon were hand-harvested and meticulously sorted, lightly crushed, and cold-soaked on the skins for 48 hours before fermented in open tanks. After a primary fermentation, yeast was added, and fermentation occurred at 24-25°C for 10 days with regular pump-overs. Minimal intervention in the natural winemaking processes allows the varietal to express its unique characteristics and the terroir beautifully. The wine aged for 15-18 months in 300-liter French oak barrels.
