Description |
Named after the majestic views of the Simonsberg Mountain, Simonsig Estate is situated in the famous Stellenbosch Winelands just 45 km east of Cape Town. Since French Huguenot Jacques Malan first set foot in the Cape in 1688, the Malan family’s wine knowledge accumulated over many generations, has equipped them to excel as one of the leading private producers of estate wines in South Africa. The late Frans Malan, beloved patriarch of the Malan Family and one of the pioneers of the South African wine industry, was not only a craftsman of superior wines, but also introduced numerous Simonsig ‘firsts’, cementing the estate’s stately legacy in the Cape Winelands. Today, his legacy lives on in his sons, Pieter, Francois and Johan, and grandson Francois-Jacques, the 3rd and 4th Malan generation at Simonsig Estate. After more than 30 Simonsig vintages, current Cellarrmaster Johan Malan continues the family’s pioneering spirit with his own impressive lineage of award winning wines. |
Tasting notes |
Deep black cherry colour with healthy and youthful rim. The bouquet exhibits a pot pourri of flavours ranging from Santa Rosa plum, violets, a touch of truffle and forest floor. The tell tale black currant bud and lead pencil herbaceousness adds to the unmistakable Cabernet Sauvignon personality coming from a cooler vintage in the Cape. Delicious sweet, well rounded flavours on the palate are perfectly framed by the seamless fine grained tannins which have softened sufficiently to allow the ripe berry fruitiness to shine through. Spicy clove and vanillin oak notes add to the complexity and lingering aftertaste. A Cabernet with elegance and finesse. |
