Information about "Van Loveren Christiena Trousseau Cabernet Sauvignon 2022"
The Van Loveren Christiena Trousseau Cabernet Sauvignon enchants the senses with an exquisite concentration of ripe plum, blackcurrant, and blackberry, accompanied by delicate hints of vanilla. Exceptionally deep and powerful, yet elegant, it boasts perfect balance, velvety tannins, and a long, pleasant finish. This well-structured Cabernet Sauvignon from a single vineyard showcases a delightful fruit concentration enriched with notes of dark chocolate, tobacco, and cloves.
The grapes for this Cabernet Sauvignon were hand-harvested and meticulously sorted, lightly crushed, and cold-soaked on the skins for 48 hours before fermented in open tanks. After a primary fermentation, yeast was added, and fermentation occurred at 24-25°C for 10 days with regular pump-overs. Minimal intervention in the natural winemaking processes allows the varietal to express its unique characteristics and the terroir beautifully. The wine aged for 15-18 months in 300-liter French oak barrels.
