A full-bodied, richly textured Cabernet Sauvignon with intense black fruit, well-integrated French oak and a smooth, lingering finish.
The vineyards of Riebeek Cellars lie in a richly diverse area in terms of soil, climate and topography. Vineyards are situated at heights that vary from 60 meters above sea level to 300 meters against the slopes of the Kasteelberg mountains. Because of the topography, the soils display the same rich variety: Oakleaf and Dundee alluvial soil formed by sediment from the Berg River; Swartland and Glenrosa soils formed out of underlying shale along the Kasteelberg mountains; and the notable ‘Koffieklip’ (coffee stone) soil - a combination of clay and iron-rich Ferricrete deposits, known widely throughout South Africa for its erosion-resistant qualities.
