The Nederburg Two Centuries Cabernet Sauvignon is a rare, iconic wine from the Private Bin Collection, Nederburg's flagship wine. This exclusive cuvée is produced exclusively in outstanding vintages, handcrafted from exceptional grapes from South Africa's finest coastal vineyards. The wine honors Nederburg's 200-year heritage with a powerful, elegant Cabernet that not only impresses but is also built for longevity.
The grapes are sourced from two prime locations: the cool south- and east-facing slopes of Stellenbosch and the low-yielding Simonsberg Mountains in Paarl. In Stellenbosch, the constant Atlantic breeze ensures slow, concentrated ripening. The vineyards on Paarl's granite-rich soils yield small, loose bunches of exceptional aromatic intensity. This combination of terroirs gives the wine both power and refinement.
Each vineyard is harvested and vinified separately. The grapes undergo cold maceration and fermentation in open vats with daily pigeage. After fermentation , complete malolactic fermentation takes place in barrel , followed by a full 28 months of aging in new French oak barriques. Only the very best barrels are selected for the final blend. The result is a wine with layered depth, texture, and exceptional aging potential.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
