NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This South African red wine offers a deep ruby color with a bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry, and hints of cedar and tobacco.On the palate, it is full-bodied with well-integrated tannins and a balanced acidity.
The Simonsig Labyrinth Cabernet Sauvignon displays a harmonious blend of fruit and oak flavors. The blackcurrant and blackberry notes continue to shine, accompanied by subtle undertones of vanilla and spice from the oak aging process. The wine has a long and satisfying finish, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruits and a touch of earthiness.
This wine is an excellent choice for those who appreciate the classic characteristics of Cabernet Sauvignon. It pairs well with red meat dishes, such as grilled steak or lamb, and can also be enjoyed on its own.
