Information about "Restless River Main Road & Dignity Cabernet Sauvignon 2020"
Restless River is nestled in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, surrounded by vineyards at an elevation of 400 meters and just 5 km from the cool waters of the Atlantic. The Restless River Main Road & Dignity Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 showcases a captivating complexity, revealing aromas of black and red currants interlaced with evocative graphite, complemented by subtle hints of tobacco leaves and cedarwood. Its mineral backbone and structured tannins grant depth and a lingering finish. This wine eloquently reflects the terroir of Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, benefiting from a cool climate that balances ripe fruit with refreshing acidity.
The hand-selected grapes are pressed in basket presses and fermented with indigenous yeast. The wine matures for 22 months in 225-liter French oak barrels, of which 20% are new oak, creating a balanced oak influence that enhances its natural character.
