Product information "Vergelegen Mill Race Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2023"
The Vergelegen Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot flows into the glass in an attractive dark red colour. The nose shows intense aromas of cassis, fine blackberry notes as well as delicious plum tones, paired with notes of fine cedar wood, fragrant coffee and subtle spices. The tannins are fine, ripe and superbly integrated, ending in a long finish. A highly endowed Bordeaux-style wine of remarkable structure and dense concentration.

Die handgelesenen Trauben wurden über Nacht schonend heruntergekühlt, bevor sie eine ausgedehnte Mazeration und eine präzise temperaturgesteuerte Gärung durchliefen. Dieses behutsame Vorgehen verleiht dem Wein seine seidigen Tannine, beeindruckende Tiefe und beständige, satte Farbe. Anschließend reifte er 18 Monate in französischen Barriques, von denen 20 % neu waren – für zusätzliche Finesse und harmonische Holznuancen.
