Product information "Protea Cabernet Sauvignon 2020"

The Protea wines of Anthonij Rupert are wines with a lighter style, easy to enjoy without frills, wines that are made to be drunk soon. The Protea Cabernet Sauvignon convinces with a stunning bouquet of ripe blueberries and fragrant raspberries. On the palate it is lush, juicy and finely rounded off with delicious nuances of dark and red berries as well as an exciting touch of liquorice, earth and graphite. The core of the wine is firm with typical Cabernet Sauvignon backbone. A well balanced and well integrated wine with a long and deep finish.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for the Protea Cabernet Sauvignon were harvested by hand in the early hours of the morning to ensure that the delicate aromas and flavours are preserved. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes were placed in stainless steel tanks where the alcoholic fermentation took place. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was separated from the skins and the skins were pressed separately. The free-running wine and the pressed wine were then matured for 12 months on French oak staves and in stainless steel tanks before being bottled for young and ready consumption.
