Visio Vintners Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

A soft and elegant wine with a nose of fynbos, blueberries, and black cherries. On the palate the wine delivers lithe berry flavours, with a hint of tobacco and dried herbs on the finish. The natural acidity and elegant tannin structure will allow maturation over the next 3-5 years. Enjoy this wine on its own or pair with grilled lamb. For a vegetable alternative enjoy with hearty mushroom dishes, and chargrilled winter vegetables flavoured with rosemary

Visio Vintners is a Stellenbosch based, black owned company and brand, and was established in 2018 as a collaboration between the Kleine Zalze Empowerment Trust and Kleine Zalze Wines.

The collaboration supports the transfer of skills in wine farming, farm management, winemaking and wine marketing, in order to ensure long-term sustainability.
about the harvest: Harvested in the cool early hours of the moring
in the cellar : Half of the grapes were transferred “whole berry” to traditional open-top fermenters and the remaining half to stainless steel tank for fermentation. Pump-overs were used to extract as much colour and flavour as possible during the first two-thirds of fermentation. This ensures that only fine, delicate tannins are extracted without any excessive astringency. After fermentation, the wine was separated from the skins using gravity to preserve freshness in the wine and went through malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine was aged in 2 nd and 3rd fill 300L French oak barrels for 12 months.
