More information about Selection 16/79 Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
In a bright dark ruby red, the Selection 16/79 Cabernet Sauvignon sparkles in the glass and brings red wine fans from the first moment into raptures. The bouquet unfolds pleasant aromas of red fruits, especially cherries and currants are present. A hint of oak surrounds the fruity notes and provides the final touch. On the palate, the red wine impresses with its elegance and a classic Cabernet Sauvignon character. A nice acidity and a slight herbal note make the clear composition of the Selection 16/79 Cabernet Sauvignon perfect. The red wine matured for seven months in French, American and Hungarian oak and accompanies dishes with dark meat quite wonderfully. But also pure you should try this Cabernet Sauvignon in any case once. The red wine is part of the Selection 16/79, which commemorates the founding father of the South African winemaking tradition, Simon van der Stel, who became governor of the Cape in 1679 and advanced viticulture in South Africa.
