About this Item

2022 Rock of Eye CWG Cabernet Sauvignon
12 (2 x 6) 750ml

"Winemaking, for me, is the complete process from vineyard to cellar. What I enjoy is the interpretation of what nature gives. And I think the unique way that I interpret the vine and the wine produces wines of distinctive character.” - Coenie Snyman

100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Wine of Origin: Stellenbosch
Winemaker: Coenie Snyman

Coenie's winemaking ethos is grounded in the belief that experience is paramount for crafting exceptional wines. With the inaugural vintage of Rock of Eye, he underscores the invaluable role of expertise and intuition in guiding the winemaking process. This a unique expression of Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon from 2022 by Coenie Snyman. Its powerful and fruit-driven Polkadraai grapes bring juicy tannins to the blend. Simonsberg grapes bring austerity and tight tannins to the blend.

Tasting Notes: An array of black and red currants brings the wine to life, with graphite, cedar and fynbos aromas complementing the fruit. The palate is full of red, dark fruits, savoury notes and has a dry finish.

Ready for drinking now until 2037.
