Bergsig Cabernet Sauvignon

CELLAR TREATMENT
Grapes were picked at 23 - 24 °B. Pumped over during fermentation to extract maximum colour and flavour. Malolactic fermentation was completed before oak maturation in small French and American barrels for up to 24 months.

TASTING NOTES
An elegant wine with deep ruby colour, plums and red berry fruit, and smoothly integrated tannin. Accessible now, but well enough structured for 4+ years ageing potential. The ideal wine to serve with roasts, venison and mature cheeses.

Bergsig Estate

Bergsig Estate liegt im Tal des Breede River gut 100 Kilometer östlich von Kapstadt und befindet sich bereits in sechster Generation im Besitz der gastfreundlichen Winzerfamilie Lategan. Ihr jüngster Spross De Wet Lategan hat es sich auf die Fahnen geschrieben, die Gewächse des Estates nicht nur besonders gut, sondern noch jederzeit erschwinglich zu machen. „De Wet macht eine bewundernswerte Serie von wirklich preiswerten Weinen, die von Jahrgang zu Jahrgang noch besser werden“, bescheinigt ihm Südafrikas bedeutendster Weinkritiker John Platter. Und in der Tat dürfte es ausgesprochen schwierig sein, derart gute südafrikanische Estate-Weine zu günstigeren Preisen zu bekommen.

Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Cabernet Sauvignon
The Kleine Zalze Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon matured for 13 months in barriques. Due to this longer ageing in wooden casks, the wine shows a wonderfully multi-layered bouquet offering notes of ripe dark fruit (black currants), liquorice, leather, graphite and fine roast aromas which unite in intense interaction. This pure varietal Cabernet Sauvignon from the Coastal region is full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, with a great balance, noticeable but very well-integrated tannins and a prolonged finish.Enjoy this powerful Cabernet Sauvignon from South Africa with grilled meat, salami or dishes with smoked ham.
