Tasting notes

The Tall Horse Cabernet Sauvignon is rich and ruby packed color with plenty of dark forest berry aromas that slide to a smooth entry with rampant ripe blackcurrant and pastille flavours, beautifully integrated with savoury oak spice and a plush succulent finish. An honest red wine that is ready to drink now or within a year or two. Don’t wait too long. Enjoy slightly chilled with your favourite juicy steak, roast or casserole. Also great with tomato based Italian food or full-flavoured hard cheese.

 “ Tall Horse goes with anything and anything goes with Tall Horse. ”

Tall Horse wines are enjoyable anywhere at any time! Preferably with friends around a braai & filled with ice because it’s hot in South Africa

Viticulture:
Grapes were tracked from a variety of macroclimates ranging from warmer Southern slopes, basking in long
hours of sunlight to cooler pockets of vines where African Ocean breezes ensure ultimate expression of cultivar and land. Our Cape climate allows the vines to drink in the winter rainfall and ripen slowly in the warm summer season before harvesting in February at an average of 24˚C.

Winemaking:
Grapes are fermented on the skins for seven days at 28˚C with three aerations per day. After pressing, the young wine is put on French oak staves where malolactic fermentation is completed. The wine is left on the staves for a further 3 months. A very light filtration before bottling ensures the conservation of intrinsic cultivartraits.
