Vergelegen V 2016 is a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon-based Bordeaux blend from the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. The V cuvée is the flagship wine of the prestigious Vergelegen estate, whose rich winemaking history dates back to the 1700s. The 2016 was matured in 100% new French oak barrels for 24 months followed by a further 48 months resting in bottle. Producer note. "The nose is complex, showing blackcurrants, red cherries, cedar wood, lead pencil and cigar box aromas. These develop in the glass and are joined by raspberry, black cherry, spice and a hint of gaminess. On the palate the wine is concentrated but elegant, with fine-grained tannins. These tannins soften even further in the glass, resulting in a luxurious wine with a long aftertaste."
