Kanonkop Kadette Cape Red Blend - Stellenbosch

This 2020 wine blend hails from Stellenbosch, South Africa. Crafted by a 4th - generation family - owned estate, Kanonkop, one of South Africa's top Pinotage producers. The blend consists of 44% Pinotage, 29% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 2% Cabernet Franc. On the nose, you'll detect a lovely mix of juicy black currants, plums, and dark cherries, along with notes of vanilla and tea leaves. It has a medium - bodied structure with fine tannins and a well - balanced acidity. The finish is savory yet full of flavor. This delicious wine pairs perfectly with veal, red meat, or poultry dishes.

To enjoy this wine, simply open the bottle and let it breathe for about 30 minutes. Pour it into a wine glass and savor the aroma before taking a sip. Keep it in a cool, dark place when not in use. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or in a place with extreme temperature changes. If you have any leftover wine, seal the bottle tightly and refrigerate it. It should still be good for a day or two. When serving, aim for a temperature around 18 - 20 degrees Celsius for the best taste experience. And remember, it goes great with veal, red meat, or poultry dishes.
