Kaapzicht Steytler Pentagon 2021 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R755
'Very special single 1995 block of dryland bushvines on ferricrete, apex label from respected pinotage & chenin house shows great finesse & nobility in
2021. Signature berry intensity is tempered & refined, with suede tannins & vivid acidity, promising extended cellaring. All-new oak regime lends balanced polish & spice.' – Platter's Guide, 5* (95/100)
‘Pentagon is an impressive, age-worthy Bordeaux style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% each of Cabernet Franc and Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. Fresher and finer than it has been of late, it has well-integrated 70% new oak, flavours of chocolate, damson and blackcurrant leaf, a waft of fynbos and firm but textured tannins. 2027-38’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 94/100
