Glen Carlou Gravel Quarry Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

GC003v22
Please login to see prices.
A bold Cabernet Sauvignon showing cassis, dark plum and hints of cedar, supported by structured tannins and a long, savoury finish.
Gravel Quarry Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the depth and power derived from Paarl’s gravel-rich soils. Intense aromas of blackcurrant, dark cherry and plum are layered with notes of cedar, graphite and subtle spice from French oak maturation. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with firm yet polished tannins providing backbone and ageing capacity. Concentrated fruit is balanced by freshness, leading to a persistent, savoury finish. This is a commanding, cellar-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon that rewards decanting in youth and will develop further complexity over time.
