Van Loggerenberg Wines Breton Cabernet Franc 2022 Magnum Bottle size: 1500ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R890
‘Lukas van Loggerenberg is a Loire Valley nut, happy to pay to drink the best that the region has to offer and learn from his favourite producers. This is a world-class expression of the variety, combining raw material from Faure and the Polkadraai Hills. Fermented with 25% whole bunches before ageing in concrete and old wood, it has wet grass and pencil shaving aromas, granite-derived freshness and a core of plum and black cherry fruit. 2024-30’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023, 96/100
‘Grapes from Polkadraai Hills and nearby. 25% whole-bunch fermented. Matured for 10 months in older oak. Plum, cherry, floral perfume, dried herbs, earth and pencil shavings on the nose while the palate is juicy and fresh with very fine tannins making for a cashmere-like texture. Relatively light and vibrant with a super-dry finish. Alc: 13.3%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100

The 2019 vintage is the fourth release for Lukas – a rising star, Young Gun and 2018 Young Winemaker of the Year by Tim Atkin. Lukas grew up in Rawsonville in the Breederivier valley, and was always surrounded by vineyards and wine. His wines are produced in the Devon Valley and the grapes are sourced from Stellenbosch, Paarl and Swartland. Each wine and it’s name has a specific story behind it and his wines have become extremely sought-after. ‘Pretty damn hot,’ says Christian Eedes raving about his previous releases. |
