The 2021 Villiera Cabernet Sauvignon is a textbook Stellenbosch red—deeply expressive with layers of blackberry, cassis, and subtle spice on the nose. The palate is full yet refined, delivering plush dark fruit, smooth tannins, and a balanced finish. Approachable in its youth, yet structured enough to reward cellaring for up to a decade. A polished Cabernet that captures both the power and elegance of its coastal terroir.
Harvested at peak ripeness, our 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon blends fruit from Devon Valley and Villiera for layered complexity. Fermented in pumpover tanks at 25°C, it underwent full malolactic fermentation in stainless steel before barrel aging. The wine matured for 12 months in French oak—20% new—bringing structure and finesse. This careful, hands-on process preserves purity of fruit while adding depth and age-worthiness to the final blend.
