Named after the estate's distinctive Antigo red clay soils, this wine is a tribute to the unique terroir of the eastern slopes of the Helderberg, where the richer soils produce a softer, more approachable expression of Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2021 vintage is a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot and 4% Merlot. Grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed but not crushed, before fermenting for approximately 18 days. The wine is then matured for 20 months in French oak barrels, 25% of which are new, resulting in a refined balance of fruit, structure and elegance. Bottled at 13.3% ABV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose: \u003c\/strong\u003ePlush aromas of red currants and blackberries are layered with subtle tobacco, creamy oak, cedar and delicate herbal notes, creating an inviting and elegant bouquet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to full-bodied with generous red and black fruit flavours supported by vibrant acidity and beautifully integrated French oak.
