Cabernet Sauvignon "Prospect Hill"

   The Prospect Hill vineyard is situated on a cool southeast-facing slope of the Zandvliet Mountains, at an altitude of 172 metres above sea level. This aspect exposes the vineyard to the warm morning sun and shades it in the hotter afternoons. These features combine deep, well-drained red Karoo soils with a generous lime content, to create the perfect balance for growing exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon. The farm has been owned by one of Robertson Winery’s 35 member families, the Bruwers. since 1956.

   Intense aromas of blackcurrant and brambly wild fruit lead promisingly to rich flavours of ripe cassis and chocolate, as well as some earthiness. Balanced tannins and acidity ensure a well-defined structure and an elegant finish.
