WINE DESCRIPTION

Le Riche Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium wine produced by the renowned Le Riche winery in the Stellenbosch appellation of South Africa. The wine is made from carefully selected grapes grown in the estate's vineyards, which benefit from the region's unique terroir and climate. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including hand-picking and barrel aging, resulting in a complex and elegant wine with a deep ruby color and aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with firm tannins and a long finish, making it an excellent choice for aging or pairing with rich dishes.
