Wisdom Point
Western Cape, South Africa
A fruit-forward and refreshing Cabernet from “Best of Class” Wisdom Point
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Wisdom Point
Cabernet Sauvignon
Our Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits dark, punchy fruit flavor with a refreshing herbal aromatic lift. Four-time Gold Medalist Wisdom Point never fails to embody the beauty of South African wine.

WINE REGION:
Western Cape
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.

TASTING NOTES:
Redcurrant
Licorice
Black Cherry
A touch of herbaceousness adds complexity to aromas of redcurrant. The palate is a bit lighter than other more powerful Cabernets from the New World, with bright acidity and gentle tannins. Fruit remains the focus through ripe black cherry and red licorice flavors.
