Product: 2019 Kanonkop, Paul Sauer, Stellenbosch
Merchant Review NR
Adrie Beeslaar Kanonkop Estate Cellarmaster :- "I do the blending of the various varietal components straight after malolactic fermentation, so I spend a long time scrutinising the various components. Cabernet Sauvignon will always be the cornerstone of the Paul Sauer, but now and again the roles of other two components change. For the 2019 vintage we used more Cabernet Sauvignon than per usual – 75% - with 14% Cabernet Franc and 11% Merlot. The influence of the two Cabernets on this wine is evident showing a long, cool refinement with sleek tannins." After two years in barrel and ready for release, the wine is seamlessly elegant and truly accessible, even in its current youthful state. "Bunches were small and tight with immense concentration in the fruit and the juice showed balanced chemistry from the onset of fermentation," he says. "The most important contribution of terroir lies in the structure of the final wine. And here Paul Sauer 2019 shows a genteel purity, reverberating with a brisk freshness driving an array of classical red wine flavours." The saturated ruby colour is complemented by a dense and interwoven complexity of tilled earth, nutmeg, bouquet garni, with classic cedar and red and black fruits. The wine remains refined, with an elegant structure. Tannins are precise and, together with the use of new oak, create the perfect backdrop to host the complex fruit spectrum. A long, and – at this stage - youthful finish. If stored correctly, this wine will mature gracefully for 20 – 25 years.
