Bon Courage is known for its modern production methods. This allows them to extract the best from every grape variety, including Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes for Bon Courage Estate Cabernet Sauvignon are grown in prime locations in Robertson, ideally positioned for sun and river access, ensuring a pleasant nighttime breeze. During the growing season, the large leaves are trimmed to allow for even more sunlight. After harvest, Bon Courage Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is aged in oak, in its second or third use. This allows for the necessary aromas to be released, but not excessively, keeping this Bon Courage accessible. Oak aging lasts between 12 and 15 months, just as the winemaker approves bottling.
The color, the aroma, and the taste—you can immediately recognize this as a Cabernet Sauvignon. And what a wine! A beautiful glass of red wine. Deliciously rich on the nose. You smell red berries, strawberries, black cherries, vanilla, and a hint of nuts, but also currants, cedar, and mint. Broad in aroma, successful in taste. After a sip of Bon Courage Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, you'll slowly fall in love with this wine. Full-bodied and ripe. Concentrated in flavor. Cassis and cherries. A hint of jam, but also complex notes of cedar and mint. An astronomically high price-quality ratio!
