The Nebukadnesar 2022 is the prestigious flagship red from the Babylonstoren estate, representing the pinnacle of South African Bordeaux style blends. This vintage is a complex composition of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. Each component was matured separately in new French oak for 23 months before being expertly blended to create a wine of immense depth and structure. The wine reveals a deep ruby colour and an intriguing bouquet of violets, thyme and intense blackcurrant, underscored by classic cigar box notes. On the palate, it is opulent yet sophisticated, featuring multi layered dark red fruits and tight, well honed tannins. It handles the oak with effortless grace, leading to a long and compelling finish. For an exquisite pairing, serve this refined red with roast lamb seasoned with rosemary and garlic or a rare beef fillet on the bone. A multi award winning label, this flagship wine is built to age beautifully for years to come.
