Product information "Ernie Els The Big Easy Cabernet Sauvignon 2018"
The Ernie Els The Big Easy Cabernet Sauvignon exudes a classic bouquet of red berry fruit, fragrant cigar box, dried herbs, black cherries and ripe plums, paired with the freshness of red cherries. On the palate, this elegant drop pampers with an invitingly fresh start, youthful vigour and bold red fruit with earthy undertones. The taut tannin makes for a wine of medium body with a fresh crystalline character. With further development in the glass this Cabernet Sauvignon presents itself with an attractive tension between red and black fruit as well as hints of fine liquorice in the focused and dry finish.

The grapes were hand-picked in the cool morning hours and carefully selected for the further production process. Fermentation took place in open stainless steel tanks, where the marc cap was manually immersed three to five times a day to ensure maximum extraction of colour and aromas. The wine matured after fermentation in a selection of oak barrels.
