Reserve

Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon

Le Riche Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from Stellenbosch is a stellar example of South African winemaking prowess. This full-bodied red wine is rich with complexity, enveloping the palate with deep flavors of blackcurrant, ripe plum, and hints of tobacco. Its acidity is bright and vibrant, enhancing the elegance of each sip and providing a refreshing lift. The tannins are very firm and structured, lending a powerful, long-lasting finish that enhances its aging potential. The fruit intensity is particularly striking, with pronounced notes that immediately capture your attention and linger gracefully. This wine is not just a testament to the esteemed winegrowing tradition of Stellenbosch but also a top contender in international wine competitions, often securing well-deserved accolades for its exceptional quality.

Coastal Region

Covering most of the Western Cape, the Coastal Region is the beating heart of South Africa's wine industry. Cooled by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and sheltered by mountains to the south and east, the region enjoys perfect conditions for grapevines to thrive. This is where you will find the world-famous sub-regions of Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl. Wines labeled as Coastal Region are likely to be made from grapes sourced from a few different sub-zones, taking advantage of a wide range of mesoclimates and soil types. Look out for South Africa's flagship grapes: rounded Chenin Blanc, bold, figgy Pinotage and international grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Shiraz too.
