Idiom 900 Series Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

R900.00

A three-barrel limited release of multi-cloned Cabernet Sauvignon from our best vineyard sites. A dark, full-bodied wine with mulberry and tobacco aromas. Opulent and rich cassis character is already evident. A wine with juicy tannins and a long, lingering finish that will develop over time. An intense expression of single varietal Cabernet Sauvignon. Decanting recommended.
