Kanonkop, Kadette Cape Blend 2021
DESCRIPTION
Kanonkop Wines are famous throughout South Africa for their consistent quality, purity and finesse. The Pinotage is rich and elegant, with a softer tannin structure due to the cooler growing season of this vintage. Notes of sumptuous plum, strawberry confit, wood spice and nutmeg entice from the outset, while the palate is an opulent delight of sweet red pastilles, juicy cherry and subtle hints of spiced oak and rich chocolate. A delightful balance of acidity, fruit, woodiness and freshness, this is a versatile red that will suit any cuisine.
REGION
Stellenbosch
South Africa
Stellenbosch is undoubtedly South Africa’s most prestigious wine region. Located in the coastal region of the Western Cape, east of Cape Town, it enjoys a Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes and sheltered by surrounding mountains. Its varied terroir – granite, shale, and sandy soils – allows for the production of both powerful red wines and elegant whites.
While Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends (with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot) have built its reputation, Stellenbosch is also renowned for its refined Chenin Blancs, distinctive Chardonnays, and expressive Syrahs. Home to many iconic estates, this appellation remains a showcase of South African winemaking expertise.
