The grapes are sourced from some of the finest vineyards in the Stellenbosch area including the slopes of the Helderberg, Stellenbosch Mountain, Simonsberg and the Polkadraai area. An understanding of this special terroir, meticulous site selection and attention to detail in the vineyards is crucial to ensure that the very best quality grapes are brought into the cellar. Each batch of grapes has been carefully selected for a specific aromatic profile, tannin structure and texture to contribute to the harmonious complexity of the First Verse.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Press Ratings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e96 Points - Tim Atkin MW (2021 Vintage)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cabernet Franc adds the spicy, restrained elegance and fine-grained tannins, the Merlot introduces plum and red berry flavours, while the Cabernet Sauvignon provides rigidity with firm tannins and blackberry and cassis flavours.
