Claime D'or

2012 Robertson Cabernet Sauvignon

The Solidus Claime D'or is an exquisite Cabernet Sauvignon from the renowned Robertson region, celebrated for its lush landscapes and perfect grape-growing conditions. This 2012 vintage showcases a beautifully deep red hue that invites you to explore its complex aromas. On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied structure, harmoniously balanced with elevated acidity that brings a refreshing brightness to the wine. The fruit intensity is prominently pronounced, offering rich layers of dark berries, complemented by hints of spice and subtle oak influences. Tannins are firm yet smooth, providing a solid backbone that contributes to its ageability. As a dry wine, it elegantly embodies the characteristics that make Cabernet Sauvignon a favorite among enthusiasts, creating a captivating experience with each sip.
