Dombeya Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 91 Points
Garnet with brown rim, showing advanced evolution.
Clean, high intensity, very fine Cabernet typicity with complex blackcurrant, cassis and cedar wood, lending lead pencil note and graphite mineral.
Dry with dash residual sugar, delicate extraction, firm ripe tannins, savoury, medium acidity, fresh with minty complexity, tobacco ash, full bodied with very high alcohol of 14.5% abv, noticeable(chest burn), but nevertheless a fine effort, now until 2015.
