Description
Translating to ‘First Row’, the Beyerskloof Eerste Ry is the first estate Cabernet Sauvignon in the Beyerskloof portfolio, produced from the first grapes ever planted on Beyerskloof estate. Eerste Ry symbolically refers to the oldest vineyards planted and pays homage to where it all started.
The 2019 vintage shows upfront dark fruit and cassis which compliments the spicy cedar oak aromas and hints of pencil shavings. On the palate intense dark fruit and cassis upon entry with delicate spice and savoury aromas from the new oak. A structured Cabernet Sauvignon with excellent complexity and great balance. Hints of dark chocolate add to a long smooth finish.
Food pairing: Pairs well with matured sirloin or rump steaks or an oxtail stew.
Ageing potential: This wine will develop well for 10 years or longer.
Alcohol: 13.72% ABV
