Information about "De Krans Cape Vintage Reserve 2020"

Imposing as ink, the De Krans Cape Vintage Reserve 2020 showcases a deep plum-red hue enchanting in the glass. Its aromatic profile reveals a complex interplay of ripe red berries and cherries, delicately accented by floral notes of violets and hints of dark chocolate. On the palate, a luscious embrace of dark fruit nuances unfolds, featuring ripe plums, mulberries, and black currants, perfectly harmonized with rounded notes of smooth dark chocolate and firm tannins. This exquisite wine is crafted from vines over 30 years old, rooted in quintessential Karoo clay and sandy soils. Handpicked in mid to late February, the selected Touriga Nacional (71%) and Tinta Roriz (29%) grapes are sourced from specific vineyard parcels.

Treatment in the cellar

Die mit großer Sorgfalt ausgesuchten Trauben für den De Krans Cape Vintage Reserve wurden per Hand gelesen und bei Ankunft in der Kellerei entrappt, gequetscht und in offenen Gärbehältern rapide runtergekühlt. Die Trauben wurden der spontanen Gärung überlassen, d.h. ausschließlich durch wilde Hefekulturen, welche natürlich in der Umgebung vorkommen, setzte die Fermentierung der Beeren ein. Beim gewünschten Zuckerlevel wurde der Gärungsprozess durch die Zugabe von Alkohol zum Saft unterbunden. Anschließend reifte der Wein 12 Monate lang in großen Fässern.
