Kanonkop Paul Sauer 2022 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R1,040
‘A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Cabernet Franc, and 18% Merlot. Matured for 24 months in 100% new oak. The nose shows red and black berries, floral perfume, herbs, and oak spice. Slightly broader than the 2021, despite the unusually high proportion of Cabernet Franc. Great structure and balance – pure fruit, less aggressive acidity than in some vintages, and tightly packed, fine-grained tannins. Substantial without being weighty. Alc: 13.5%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 95/100
‘Deep ruby colour. A classic, perfumed nose packed with cherries, cassis, cedar wood, tea leaves and tomato puree. The palate is an explosion of fruit with lovely dark berry, rose petal, toasted oak and hints of plum. A complex multi-layered, refined wine with a beautiful structure, balanced acidity with fine-grained tannins and a long finish. Bottled elegance.’ – Winemaker
