Capensis Silene Cabernet Sauvignon

Capensis Silene Cabernet Sauvignon is a Stellenbosch red with concentrated blueberry, cassis and dark fruit character, layered with black olive, subtle dark chocolate and savory complexity. Fine-grained tannins provide a smooth, velvety texture, while the concentrated fruit core carries through a persistent, mouth-coating finish.

Blueberries and cassis confidently lead the flavor profile, with black olive tapenade weaving in a touch of savory complexity. The wine reveals a concentrated core, enveloped by layers of deep, velvety dark fruits, accented by subtle dark chocolate notes and the alluring fragrance of a well-worn cigar box. The fine-grained tannins impart a soft and smooth texture, leaving a wonderfully mouth-coating finish that lingers on the palate.

Food Pairing: Pairs best with grilled ribeye steak, braised beef short ribs, or herb-crusted lamb.

90 Points - Wine Spectator

A dark fruit core of açai and black currant is garnished with Darjeeling and tobacco flavors. Toasty and assertive, with a serious pull of intense oak tannins that persists through the finish. Drink now through 2028.
