Bellevue The Reserve Collection Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

This small volume cabernet sauvignon shows a cedarwood and dark plum nose with a smooth palate of black current / cassis. The articulate balance between the smooth dark fruit and clean minerality makes for an elegant wine with great length and a classy finish. This wine has good ageing potential of up to 15 years, in good cellaring conditions.
