Anthonij Rupert Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Immensely alluring sexy nose of spicy plum, cassis and blackcurrant leaf tinged with violet perfume and dried lavender. Refinement and elegance characterise the palate. It is powerful yet restrained. Ample spice, cassis, fruitcake and plum pudding flavours but nothing is overblown; everything is held carefully in check and counterbalanced by sympathetic harmonious oak with refined tannins. Nuanced and complex, it’s a wine for the long haul.
