($47) Saturated red-ruby. Aromas of currant, plum, chocolate and sweet oak, lifted by a minty nuance. Suave and fine-grained, with impressive energy to the creamy flavors of currant, plum, dark chocolate and mint. As generous and deep as this is, it also boasts unusual elegance for South African cabernet. Finishes broad and very long, with a fine dusting of tannins and a note of chocolatey oak that complements the rich fruit. This really perfumes the mouth on the aftertaste.
