2004 Tokara Zondernaam Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon 86+ Points

2004 Tokara Zondernaam Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon 86+ Points

Dark cherry red, lovely aromatics of blackcurrant, blueberries, cassis, lead pencil and earthy notes.

Clean, no apparent greenness, fairly intense, polished ripe tannins, with hints of minty eucalyptus, suggest some water stressed fruit, lead pencil character prominent with earthy notes, elegant mouth feel, subtle complexity, medium to full bodied.
One of the best priced Cabernet Sauvignon, over delivers in quality, excellent value for money.

Why can't more South African Cabernet Sauvignon be like that and over delivers both on quality and value??

Now until 2013
