Groot Constantia Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the historic Constantia wine region in the Western Cape. The vines grow on north-facing, granite-rich loam soils as well as on yellow-brown duplex soils formed from weathered sandstone and granite. The Mediterranean climate, with cooling breezes from the Atlantic, ensures a long ripening period and lends the wine its elegance and balance. The blend consists of Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Cabernet Franc, Shiraz, and Tannat.

The vineyards are trained using the Vertical Shot Position system and are tended and harvested exclusively by hand. Pest control is carried out using organic methods, while cover cropping is employed to promote soil health. After hand-harvesting, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks and regularly pumped over during fermentation. The wine then remains on the lees for four weeks before malolactic fermentation takes place, also in stainless steel tanks. Aging occurs for 14 months in 225-liter French oak barrels, including 53% new barriques as well as barrels in their second through fourth use.

On the nose, the wine reveals concentrated aromas of blackberries, black currants, and plums, complemented by subtle notes of tobacco and leather. On the palate, it is complex and powerful, with a dense yet harmoniously integrated tannin structure that lends the wine depth, elegance, and a long finish.

This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs excellently with grilled beef, lamb, game dishes, and braised meats. It is also an excellent accompaniment to aged hard cheeses.

Paserene Elements Midnight Cabernet Sauvignon

The Paserene Elements Midnight is an intense, multi-layered red wine from South Africa that impresses with dark fruit, spicy depth and smoky accents. This Cabernet Sauvignon-based cuvée comes from the high-altitude vineyards of Tulbagh, where cool nights and warm days create ideal conditions for structured red wines. Midnight stands for that mysterious hour when the night is at its deepest - and the wine captures exactly this feeling: powerful, sensual and fascinating.The grapes come exclusively from the Tulbagh vineyards of Paserene, whose unique terroir gives the wine its unmistakable signature.

The nose is dominated by black cherry, cassis and a hint of licorice, accompanied by toffee, vanilla and delicate wood smoke. On the palate, it is concentrated and supple at the same time: the ripe dark fruit is complemented by fine mineral nuances, earthy spice and subtle leather aromas. A powerful but balanced red wine with a long, smoky finish.Paserene Midnight is an excellent accompaniment to grilled or braised meat such as lamb chops, beef or game dishes. Matured hard cheese or a hearty stew also underline its depth. Best served at 16-18°C to allow the complex aromas to develop to their full potential.
