What wine can result from the combination of the classic Bordeaux Blend and the "golden" wine-producing region of the Southern Hemisphere? If you are wondering, you must try The Blend 2021 of the Gabriëlskloof winery now. In addition to being incredibly elegant, it is also an incredibly value-for-money option!
The Gabriëlskloof winery, next to the Bot River in South Africa, has been in the sights of ours and many wine lovers around the world. South African businessman Bernhard Heyns, had been searching for the ideal spot for his vineyard for years and finally, fate led them to a wheat and sheep farm. In 2001, he bought a piece of land and timidly began to cultivate the now-recognized vineyards of the Gabriëlskloof winery. The name was given in honor of his father, Gabriel. Faithful to sustainable winemaking practices, excellent architecture, pest control, and responsible water management, it minimizes its ecological footprint and becomes a model for preserving soil quality for future generations.
The Atlantic breeze and the diversity of the soil, yield rich and excellent-quality fruits. 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot, and 5% Malbec are placed in stainless steel tanks and fermented by gravity, and then transferred to old French barrels for 1.5 years. The result has dense fruit and very balanced acidity that forces you to consume it on a daily basis.
Its price also allows for it and more!
