Gabriëlskloof is a beautiful wine estate located near Bot River in the Overberg region east of Cape Town. It was purchased in 2001 by Bernhard Heyns, who had been on the lookout for the ideal place to plant vines. We felt compelled to add Gabriëlskloof to our list when the talented Peter-Allan Finlayson of Crystallum, Bernhard’s son in law, took over as winemaker from the 2015 vintage. Peter-Allan is now Cellar Master and oversees general management of the property, while the young and no less talented Nina Muller was promoted to winemaker.
Superb value for money, ‘The Blend’ is made up of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Cabernet Franc, 8% Malbec and 6% Petit Verdot and offers juicy black fruit, bright acidity and soft, ripe tannins.
This Bordeaux blend has aromas of blackcurrant, dark chocolate and nutmeg. The palate is structured with firm tannins and vivid acidity, leading to a long finish.
