About this Item

2020 Maximilian
36 (6 x 6) 750ml

“The best glass of wine in the world is the one in front of you. So you must not be too worried about how much it cost or exactly where it came from. Really, just enjoying it for what it is. If you are enjoying it in that moment, it is the best wine in the world.” - Miles Mossop

87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot

• An expression of a 35-year-old single vineyard of Cabernet Sauvignon from the Bottelary ward, Stellenbosch.
• Cabernet Sauvignon grown in decomposed shale is blended with a small amount of Merlot from the same area for complexity.

Tasting Notes: Deep rich garnet colour. Intense nose of dark berries, tobacco, dried herbs, and undertones of vanilla spice. The palate is rich with heady notes of bramble fruit, cedar and dried herbs with a long finish.

This wine will be ready for drinking 10 to 15 years from vintage.
