IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

The wine has a deep ruby, red colour. It shows ripe raspberries, black currant and mocha flavours on the nose and has dark chocolate and blackberry fruit on the palate. This wine has good length with a dry finish and can mature for a further 7-8 years.

The Kadette Cape Blend comprises 38% Pinotage, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc and 23% Merlot, aged in barrel for 12 months in second-, third- and fourth-fill French barriques.

The pleasant, straightforward bouquet of mint-tinged black fruit conveys an almost Left Bank personality. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black and red fruit, well-judged acidity and a sense of harmony toward the easy-drinking finish
