Rust en Vrede Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

$61.99
Expressive black fruit jumps out of the glass. Juicy black cherry and cassis combine with blueberries, licorice and sandalwood. Full bodied and intense on the palate. Fine grained, grippy tannins balance well with a fresh, black-fruit acidity. Tobacco, nutmeg and savory spice bring complex layers to mulberry and bramble fruit that round out the palate. A typically well-structured Cabernet with excellent length. 91pts Wine Spectator: ‘A fresh, harmonious Cabernet, offering ripe boysenberry and cassis fruit flavors counterpointed by savory notes of bay leaf, graphite, smoke and woodsy spices, with refined tannins. Drink now through 2028.’
