This Malbec, a blend of five high-quality parcels of grapes, is full-bodied with flavours of cassis and blackcurrant interwoven with hints of chocolate, vanilla and black pepper. Perfect with a chargrilled steak.
Rustenberg Peter Barlow 2022
Named after Peter Barlow, who reunited Rustenberg in 1941 and invested in its potential to produce world-class wines. This Cabernet Sauvignon combines power, elegance, and classic Stellenbosch structure. Vineyard & Terroir Grapes benefit from the cool, wet winter and warm ripening summer of Stellenbosch, with careful canopy management ensuring optimal ripening and balanced acidity. Winemaking Hand-picked grapes are crushed and de-stemmed. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks with regular pump-overs and an extended maceration of up to two weeks. Post-fermentation, the wine is matured for 20 months in oak barriques (61% new French oak, 39% second- and third-fill). Tasting Notes Rich aromas of red and black fruits, cedar, and clove. The palate displays lively acidity, velvety tannins, and excellent oak integration, culminating in a long, harmonious finish. Grape Variety Cabernet Sauvignon Food Pairing Grilled or roasted red meats, game, and hard cheeses.
