Anthonij Rupert Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Layered nose of inviting tea leaf, violets, dark Christmas cake and black cherries. The palate is also layered, rich with those same elements – Christmas cake sump- tuousness vying with brewed tea, tomato leaf and spicy, cedary hints from time in barrel.Seductive, plush and elegantly refined but with a muscular power lurking deep down, this is an impressive, structured but rewarding wine. The integration of wood and fruit is impressive and it is beautifully balanced and long. The aftertaste lingers. A wine made for the long haul.
