Product details

  • Winemaker

    Martin Meinert
  • Variety

    Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Deep, densely coloured, brick red with purple tints. Classical wild berry, cedar and cigar aromas are well supported by sweeter, plumy, mulberry whiffs. A big, rich wine that nevertheless already has a silky, velvety mouth feel and despite its power retains a fine and elegant core.

Press ReviewPress

A luscious, moreish mix of loganberry and cigar box. The considerable oak has been judiciously applied, allowing the individuality of the blend to shine. 18/20

Nancy Gilchrist MWDecanter April 2012

Dense, dark fruit on the nose with good, earthy intensity balancing brooding fruit on the palate.

Winemaking

67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 14% Pinotage. No yeast is added and fermentation starts spontaneously in closed stainless steel tanks. Extraction by pumping over. No extended maceration. The components were aged separately in new French Oak barrels for 12 months before the best of these barrels were selected. From these the blend was then made, the wine returned to barrel and matured another 12 months. Racking and aeration to stabilise and clean the wine carried out at intervals as felt necessary. Fined with egg white. All the soils are deep well-drained loams of medium to high potential, classified as Hutton and Glenrosa. The sites benefit from their southern exposure within the centre of the Stellenbosch region. Average yield is 5 tons/ha. Vines between 10-14 years old. Synchronicity is our flagship, a blend of all red varieties in production at our Devon Valley vineyard.
