Warwick’s Cabernet Franc has been winning awards since before Cab Franc was even a thing in SA. There’s something about our little corner of the Simonsberg that delivers the most heady combination of black fruit and purple flowers. Genuinely showstopping.

in the cellar : Two specific blocks used to produce this special and unique wine. Hand-harvested, de-stemmed and sorted into tank. The wines spent up to 30 days on the skins, depending on the tannin structure with two to three pump-overs per day and then pressed to undergo malolactic fermentation in barrel and tank. After completion, the wine was racked to French oak barrels (100% new oak was used) for a period of 24 months before a strict selection process, where only the best barrels are selected. These barrels are then blended and filtered before bottling in October 2020
