Nederburg 1791 Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Ruby red. An abundance of ripe red berry fruit and dark chocolate aromas with nuances of oak in the background. A medium-bodied wine with ripe fruit and delicate oak spice flavours, firm tannins and a lingering, youthful aftertaste. Excellent drinkability.

An ideal partner to robust dishes from pâtés to steaks, as well as winter stews and casseroles, roasts and mature cheeses.

Soft and approachable premium wines inspired by more than two centuries of winemaking begun by Nederburg's founder, Philippus Wolvaart, who bought the land in Paarl in 1791. This wine is made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

Available: Europe/UK

in the vineyard : The grapes were sourced from vineyards across the Western Cape. The viticulturist works hand-in-hand with the grape growers in managing each vineyard block to ensure the best quality fruit for this wine. The different microclimates and soil types associated with each vineyard add to the complexity of the wine.

in the cellar : 

The grapes were harvested by hand and machine at 22º to 23.5º Balling from mid-February until the end of March. The fruit was crushed and then cool-fermented on the skins in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks at 25º to 28ºC for two weeks. Upon completion of malolactic fermentation, the wine was matured in contact with French and American oak for a period of five months.
