About wine:
Franschhoek Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon is a truly remarkable red wine. The cooler valley slopes allowed the grapes to ripen slowly over a long period, resulting in this full-bodied yet silky-smooth wine. Delicious and ready to enjoy straight away.
-
Harvest and ageing:
Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for a further 12 months in French oak barrels.

Suitable for food pairing
Dry Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with beef steaks, lamb, and game. It also complements hard cheeses, grilled meats, and dishes with rich sauces. Avoid delicate fish and light dishes, which would be overwhelmed by its intense flavor.

About the winery
The South African town of Franschhoek was founded
by French Huguenots in 1688. In 1945, the local
winegrowers formed a community and began
producing distinctive wines together.
