Avontuur Talk of the Town Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2017
The nose shows upfront blackberries and black currant aromas with nuances of leafy, mulberries. There are also notes of spicy cloves, black pepper and earthyness around. There is a follow-through of the aromas to the palate with dark berries dominating. In the aftertaste we find earthy, oak undertones. It is a full-bodied wine showing mature tannin structure and crisp acidity. Good ageing potential.
