With the Eikendal Classique, the renowned wine estate from Stellenbosch presents a masterful Bordeaux-style cuvée. The combination of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot produces a complex yet supple red wine of great elegance.

The nose is dominated by aromas of blue and black berries, accompanied by earthy notes, fine spice and delicate oak. On the palate, the wine is powerful, precise and balanced. A fresh, lively acidity and fine-grained tannins contribute to the structural depth, while red and black fruits and subtle roasted aromas ensure a lingering taste experience.

The grapes come exclusively from the best plots of the Eikendal vineyards on the Helderberg. The soil of weathered "Koffieklip" (coffee stone) and the careful foliage work ensure concentrated, aromatic grapes with depth and finesse. Each grape variety was fermented and matured separately before the final cuvée was assembled. The wine was aged for 18 months in French barriques (20% of which were new), which gives the wine additional structure and ageing potential.

Enjoy this fine red wine at 18-20 °C - ideal with roast pork, côte de boeuf or mature hard cheese.
A storage wine with depth that will give pleasure for up to 20 years.

Eikendal Cabernet Merlot
Eikendal Cabernet Merlot
The Eikendal Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot is a powerful red wine cuvée in the classic Bordeaux style - full of character, full-bodied and typical of the renowned Stellenbosch wine region. The nose is dominated by ripe aromas of blackberries and blackcurrants, complemented by notes of cassis and a subtle earthiness, which are particularly typical of Cabernet Sauvignon. On the palate, the wine impresses with concentrated, fleshy fruit, fine-meshed tannins and a perfect balance of fruity richness and spicy, sweetish toasted aromas of French oak.The grapes come from high-altitude vineyards on mineral-rich "Koffieklip" soil with a clay subsoil - ideal conditions for complex, long-lasting wines. The vines, planted in 2004, are trained using the vertical shoot position system with sparse irrigation in order to achieve particularly concentrated berries. The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand into small crates, followed by cold maceration, spontaneous fermentation and gentle pressing. The wine matures for 12 months in 300-liter French oak barrels (15% of which are new) before being bottled unfiltered.This elegant cuvée harmonizes perfectly with beef carpaccio, braised beef rib or a creamy curry dish. Ideally served at 18-20 °C.Ready to drink now, with potential for a further 10 years of ageing.
