Vergelegen Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot give this Vergelegen Cabernet Sauvignon its dark, almost opaque color. In the scent, it reveals beautiful notes of black currants, ripe plums, and spices. Its 24-month maturation in French oak also gives it a pleasant wood tone and rounds off this full-bodied wine in a beautiful way.

Fermentation at 28-32°C; malolactic fermentation in 225l barrels; matured for 21 months in small French oak barrels, 70% of which are new.

The Winery

Vergelegen

The winery Vergelegen is located on the South African False Bay and is less than an hour from the city of Cape Town. It was founded in the year 1700 by Adriaan van der Stel and is today owned by André van Rensburg. The vines of the winery grow at an altitude between 140 and 310 meters, on clayey soils.

Clay soils are particularly well-suited for the growth of vines due to their ability to absorb water. The climate in this region is characterized by mild temperatures thanks to the proximity to the Atlantic Ocean.

For the production of the wines of the Vergelegen winery, grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, or Chardonnay are grown.
