Douglas Green Cabernet Sauvignon 2003

TASTING NOTES
Colour: Medium depth ruby with a garnet rim
Nose: Rich fruitcake and sun ripened tomato aromas well supported by a complexity of black berries, tobacco, nuts, violets and spicy vanilla undertones.
Palate: Smooth, full-bodied entry with intense juicy black berry fruit flavours that are in perfect harmony with the well defined yet restrained tannins and seamless wood.
Overall: A medium to full-bodied wine with a pleasing structure allowing early accessibility yet potential to integrate further and develop further complexity within the next 2 to 5 years.

IN THE VINEYARD
Grapes are selected from defined areas of the Cape for terroir specificity and varietal style.

IN THE CELLAR
Grapes are vinified separately in 6 cellars where our oenologist has strictest control over every process. Blending across vineyard sites is crucial in producing this top quality fruit driven style.
