Cederberg Five Generations Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

A Cape classic. Massive showcase 33-year single vineyard wine.  Leads the pack in the Cederberg range. In different league, handcrafted, classically styled 2007, made to mature (peak around '10 - '15) though already delicious. 18 months of maturation in new French oak has intensified the rich aromas of blackcurrant and cassis, layered with decadent dark chocolate and cherry tobacco. The plush velvety finish leaves one wanting more. Reap the rewards of patience if opting to mature this wine.
