Information about "Rustenberg Peter Barlow Cabernet Sauvignon 2022"
The Rustenberg Peter Barlow Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning expression from the renowned Simonsberg region, showcasing a bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, dark cherries, and subtle notes of cedar and cloves. On the palate, it unfolds with rich, juicy tannins and a complex structure that speaks to its elegance. This full-bodied wine promises a remarkable length and has the potential to age gracefully for over a decade.
Dedicated to the visionary who recognized the estate's potential in 1941, the current generation continues to craft this extraordinary wine, reflecting the essence of the terroir.
After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine aged for 20 months in barrels, featuring 61% new and 39% second- and third-fill French oak. The vineyard named after Peter Barlow consistently produces bold Cabernets, receiving meticulous care in the cellar. Decanting is recommended before serving.
