Product Features
Private Collection Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
- Awards: 90 Points Tim Atkin, 4 Star Platter.
- The 2017 vintage was in many respects superior to the much famed 2015 vintage and this wine is a testament to that.
- As is typical with Cabernet Sauvignons from the Polkadraai Hills ward, this wine has an incredible freshness and elegance to it, even though the tannins are still young and firm.
- Beautiful aromas of tobacco leaves, plums and blackcurrant lead to a palate that is nicely weighted and finely grained.
- This elegant wine will complement most red meat dishes, venison, or creamy Beef Stroganoff.
- Alcohol by Volume: 14.25%
Private Collection Syrah 2017
- Awards: Top 10 WineMag Shiraz Report 2020, 4.5 Platter award 2021, 90 Points Tim Atkin.
- The Saxenburg Private Collection Syrah 2017 has a beautiful nose of black cherries, red berries and a hint of pepper and spice.
- The palate is seamless – the tannin dense, but finely grained. Hints of oak are beautifully integrated and only adds to the incredible complexity.
- A note of crushed granite and floral elements brings freshness to the palate that finishes with sweet spice.
- The Syrah reflects the efforts in the vineyard and winery to strive for greater elegance and balance while staying true to the heritage of Saxenburg.

But we're not here to tell you about things that cost you more.
