Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

Provenance

This lot comes from the late Harold Eedes, who served as Managing Director of Wine Magazine for nine years. A highly respected and much-loved figure in the South African wine industry, Harold assembled a thoughtful collection that includes a number of mature Bordeaux wines. The wines have been professionally stored under temperature-controlled conditions at Brice & Burnett since acquisition.

Critics Ratings

'Lovely mint, cocoa and black currant aromas lead to a plush yet sleek palate that has waves of blackberry, plum, cassis, currant and chocolate flavors cascading over each other. Structured, but very fine-grained, the texture wins out on the lengthy finish.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Dec 2003)
