| Wine Notes: | Cathedral Cellars is the premium brand of KWV, still the Cape's leading wine producer. '[The] 1997 came in two versions (part of a terroir experiment): Paarl, more open, approachable, balanced with generous choc/mulberry tastes. Stellenbosch, demonstratably tighter, more 'serious' with firmer tannins for long-term cellaring.' (Colin Frith, John Platter South African Wines 2002). (Source: Vintages, December 2002). |
