Paulina's Reserve

2008 Franschhoek Cabernet Sauvignon

Rickety Bridge Paulina's Reserve is a remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon from the esteemed Franschhoek region, boasting a rich ruby red color that captures the eye and promises a delightful experience. The 2008 vintage displays a medium to full-bodied profile, showcasing a balance of complexity and elegance. The wine's acidity is bright and refreshing, enhancing its mouthwatering qualities while providing structure to the palate. With prominent fruit intensity, expect an enticing medley of dark fruits, such as blackberry and plum, beautifully complemented by subtle notes of spice and oak that add depth to its personality. The tannins are notably firm yet well-integrated, promising a graceful aging potential, and the wine finishes with a dry sensation that leaves a lingering impression. This Cabernet Sauvignon is a true testament to the craftsmanship of the region and a delightful addition to any collection.
