Blankbottle Confessions of a White Glove Chaser 2021

Grape Varietals & Region: Pieter Walser only uses grapes from the Lower Helderberg to make this scented, stylish, refined cuvee of 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Taste Profile: Graphite and bay leaf aromas are a scented introduction to a palate of cassis, plum and red berries, with sculpted tannins, tangy acidity and 30% new French oak. Graceful yet with terrific velvety concentration, Black fruits, savoury notes and an earthy elegance make this a wonderfully complex wine.

Winemaking Process:The grapes were picked at optimal ripeness and cooled overnight to 4 degrees celsius. The next morning the grapes were destemmed to open top fermenters. The juice underwent spontaneous fermentation and stayed on the skins for as long as possible. Pressed into French oak small barrels, 25% new, 18 months in barrel, blended and bottled
