About the wine
Banghoek is a great area for Cabernet Sauvignon. We only pick Cabernet Sauvignon in the last week of March/first week of April. Slow ripening and picking at optimal ripeness allows a lower alcohol vol. Something in between Old and New World style. Accessable at a young age but can also age for up to 6 years. This wine pleases old style and new world fruit style Cabernet supporters.
Tasting notes
Dark black in appearance. Cassis and Cigar box on the nose. Silky smooth tannins with a lingering dark chocolate aftertaste.
About the winemaker
This is proper family endeavour. Dr Jacques Malan gave up his practice to pursue his love of wine. Now his son Anton makes the wine and his other son Francois tends the vines of the 22 hectare estate in Stellenbosch. The vineyards rise up from the valley floor to 550m above sea level high up the Jonkershoek Mountain.
