The 2021 Sieraad Cabernet Sauvignon is a single vineyard wine with fruit sourced from the lower Helderberg region to produce a wine which epitomizes the fruitful character of Cabernet Sauvignons from this cooler sub-region. It is full and has soft tannins with bright raspberry flavors. The sandstone character in the soil, is a big feature giving this wine a much more pronounced pyridine perfume compared to other Stellenbosch regions. With lots of life on the palate it's ready to drink now but even better to age until 2030.

The Sieraad Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Our Appellation Wine of Origin is in the Heidelberg region of Stellenbosch. The age of vines for the Cabernet is 17 years old where drip irrigation is used for supplementary watering.
Harvesting Period
The grapes are hand-picked at the beginning of March. The season was cool and had very little rainfall which led to smaller berries with concentrated flavours.
The Process
We work closely with growers in the lower Heidelberg region of Stellenbosch from where we source our grapes. Our grapes enjoy a slightly cooler climate than other Stellenbosch regions due to the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean and its ocean breezes. The grapes are all handpicked and fermented in open concrete fermenters which allows for optimal color extraction and soft handling of the grapes.
Maturation:
Sieraad wines are considered premium quality due to the aging of 24 months in the French barrique and 24 months in the bottle.
