Neil Ellis Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 (6×750ml)

Showing what Stellenbosch as a collective can do with cabernet sauvignon, this award-winning wine celebrates the noble variety within a multi-vineyard blend. It pays tribute to the culture-rich town of Stellenbosch from which grows a reputation of innovation, originality, resourcefulness and creativity, the core principles of winemaking.

Winemaker Notes

Intense dark colour. The nose shows restraint, with aromas of black berry, liquorice and cedar notes. The palate is tight and fresh followed by fine, dense tannins. This is a wine built to last and for early drinking would benefit with decanting.

Winemaking

Fermentation initiated in stainless steel tanks and underwent a series of pump overs until dry. Further maceration allowed before drawing off and light pressing. The wine spent 17 months in French oak barrels of which 30% was new. The balance in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th fill barrels.
