Information about "Ernie Els Major Series Cabernet Sauvignon 2023"
The Ernie Els Major Series Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 epitomizes the bold sophistication of new world cabernet. Its inky hue captivates the eye, while the nose unfurls a complex bouquet of red berry fruits intermingled with enticing hints of herbs, tea leaves, pomegranate, and delicate spices. On the palate, it showcases a velvety texture enriched by a delightful touch of sandalwood. Lush cranberry and aromatic plum nuances contribute to remarkable length, accented by subtle violet undertones that exude elegance. The crisp, fruity tannins melt into a smooth yet slightly creamy finish.
Die Trauben wurden per Hand in den frühen Morgenstunden geerntet. Die Gärung erfolgte in Edelstahltanks, wonach der Wein 176Monate in Fässern aus französischer Eiche mit einer Füllmenge von 300 l reifte. 20 % der eingesetzen Eichenfässer machten Neuholz aus. Ein kleiner Teil (8%) reifte acht bis zehn Monate in Ton Amphoren.
