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. This Cabernet is a delicious glimpse into the unique winegrowing conditions found in the Western Cape. On the coast, cooling currents from the Atlantic Ocean protect Cabernet’s natural acidity levels while warm inland temperatures ripen harsh tannins and encourage rich fruit flavors. This region’s diverse terrain and biological influences offer these thick-skinned red grapes the opportunity to reach varying ripeness levels. The resulting wine displays a delectably balanced flavor profile and structural characteristics. If you are a lover of fruit-forward reds or a stickler for a great Cab, this is an excellent opportunity to gain some tasty insight into a lesser-known wine region.

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.
