Keermont Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is a Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. The estate is situated in a high-altitude bowl known as the Blaauwklippen Valley, where the soils consist of decomposed granite. This release demonstrates the producer’s focus on the structural integrity of the fruit rather than heavy extraction. It offers a profile of dark cassis, graphite and tobacco leaf, supported by tannins that feel both firm and well-integrated. The coolness of the valley allows for a long growing season, which brings out an aromatic lift that remains balanced by the deep, earthy undertones typical of this mountain site.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, blended with a touch of Cabernet Franc, comes from a parcel opposite the Steepside vineyard, with these vines planted in 2006. This has a finely detailed bouquet with blackberry, briar and a dash of white pepper. There is almost something Rhône-like about this cuvée! The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, revealing plenty of dark red berry fruit intermixed with white pepper, garrigue and graphite. Possessing fine length, this is a deftly made Cabernet doing a delicious impression of a Syrah!Neal Martin1st September 2024
