Peter Falke Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Peter Falke Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is a beautiful red wine with rich garnet hues. Full-bodied with exceptional character, intense dark fruit flavours, subtle violet and eucalyptus undertones with a hint of liquorice, tobacco leaf, and earthiness. The French oak is perfectly balanced for a lovely lingering finish.

The exclusive winery of Peter Falke is nestled against the majestic slopes of the Helderberg Mountains in the heart of the Stellenbosch Winelands, golden triangle, South Africa. Groenvlei Farm is home to rambling magenta bougainvillea, delicate scented roses, and wild lavender growing alongside carefully cultivated vineyards.

about the harvest: Only grapes of exceptional quality are selected and sorted in the vineyard, leaving sun-burnt berries on the vines.

in the cellar : In the cellar, the grapes go through another selection process before de-stemming. No crushing of the berries takes place and fermentation starts naturally after 3-4 days of cold-soaking at 15°C. The grapes are left on the skins for 25-35 days to create velvety smooth tannins. The wine is lightly pressed and then matured in new French oak barrels for 18 months.
