Information about "Vergelegen V 2018"
The Vergelegen V is a masterful blend, comprising 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot. This wine captivates with its pristine freshness and intricate aromas of spice, dark chocolate, and cedar. With a deep ruby color, it exudes sophistication and elegance, embodying the pinnacle of winemaking from the esteemed estate in Somerset West. Since its inaugural vintage in 2001, the Vergelegen V has been consistently celebrated for its quality.
Die Trauben wurden von Hand gelesen und in geschlossenen Tanks bei Temperaturen von 28-30°C vergoren. Der junge Wein erhält eine Nachgärung von 28 Tagen, gefolgt von einer malolaktischen Gärung in neuer französischer Eiche. Der V wird 16 Monate lang in Fässern und anschließend 24 Monate lang in der Flasche ausgebaut, bevor er auf den Markt kommt.
