Kanonkop 2014 is a dense and full-bodied wine, showing notes of supple blackcurrant, black plum, cedar wood and spice.
On the palate, additional characteristics of pencil shavings, tea leaf and molasses, balanced with a good acidity, integrated, ripe tannins and a lingering finish.
Magnums are best and this Kanonkop Cabernet Sauvignon will benefit from further bottle maturation of up to 20 years from bottling.
