About this Item

2001 Cabernet Sauvignon
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

The Iconic Helderberg property has title deeds back to 1693. Hennie and son Manie Malan recognized the property’s unique terroir for crafting full-bodied red wines early on, but it was Piet du Toit in 1959 that put Alto on top. Heritage and tradition married with evolution and innovation are the hallmarks of this estate situated in the golden triangle of Stellenbosch. Only five winemakers have crafted wines at Alto over eight decades.

Alto Cabernet Sauvignon blends Old World elegance with the full-bodied, fruit-driven character typical of wines from the Golden Triangle – the heart of Stellenbosch’s reputation for producing South Africa’s defining Cabernet Sauvignons.
