Zorgvliet Richelle 2019
BT0143v19
Please login to see prices.
Deep youthful ruby in colour, classic Cabernet nose with red fruits such as black currant and mulberry with notes of pencil lead and cedar.
Zorgvliet Richelle is fine and complex on the palate with lovely concentration of fruit and skilful use of oak, giving a rich structured wine with finesse and granitic length.
Owners Stephan and Izelle van de Merwe have proudly named their two Grand Cuvee wines after their daughters, Richelle and Simoné. This wine represents Zorgvliet's philosophy of 'Elegance in wine', a classic Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend.

Terroir
The soils are made up of leached, decomposed granite and sandstone. Gravel in the upper layers provides for good drainage in wet seasons and clay in the subsoil provides moisture retention in dry ones.
