Description
The Le General from Lanzerac, one of the oldest farms in Stellenbosch, is a rich, full-bodied Cabernet-based blend with a pronounced nose of vanilla and nutmeg spice leading to a flood of dark berries, cooked plums and blackcurrants on the palate. The long, complex finish shows dark chocolate and hints of smoke supported by sturdy yet smooth tannins.
The Le Général is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec and Petit verdot, was matured in a combination of new and 2nd fill 225 and 300 litre French oak barrels for a period of 20
months. The 4 varietals were individually fermented and matured before careful blending and bottling.
