La Petite Ferme Cabernet Sauvignon

2014 Western Cape Cabernet Sauvignon

La Petite Ferme Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2014 vintage showcases the vibrant essence of the Western Cape region. This red wine presents a full-bodied character that is enhanced by pronounced acidity, offering a delightful balance that energizes the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, with lush notes of blackcurrant intermingled with subtle hints of dark chocolate and spices, creating a complex flavor profile. The tannins are well-structured yet smooth, adding a firm backbone to the wine while ensuring a velvety mouthfeel. The wine is crafted in a dry style, which allows the rich fruit to shine through without overwhelming sweetness, making it an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoyed on its own.

The majority of South Africa's best wines are produced in the southwest coastal zones around Cape Town, known collectively as the Western Cape. Sandwiched between the country's majestic mountains and its cooling ocean coasts (the Atlantic to the west of the Cape of Good Hope, the Indian Ocean to its east), the Western Cape offers a wealth of winemaking riches. Regions here include the Breede River Valley, Cape South Coast, Coastal Region, Klein Karoo and Olifants River.
