Product Features

• This Cabernet Sauvignon is a Will and Miller exclusive from Stellenbosch’s Polkadraai Hills
• Sourced from a 20-year-old vineyard planted on decomposed granite and koffieklip
• Leaves are removed from the bunch zone to ensure better colour development, even ripening and to prevent any green flavours
• The grapes were hand-picked and destemmed before fermentation in open-top fermenters
• Maturation was done for 12 months in French oak barrels (20% new), before being blended and taken back to older barrels for an additional 8 months
• A very attractive nose dominated by blackberries, blueberries, and red cherries, with subtle hints of peppadew and pencil shavings at the back
• The palate shows the typical elegance of Polkadraai Hills Cabernet Sauvignon, with wonderfully fine tannins and medium-weight
• This wine has incredible fruit purity, framed by subtle oak aromas and brought together with a lively acidity
• Paired perfectly with a red meat stew
