Alto - Cabernet Sauvignon - 6 x 750ml Alto, situated on the slopes of the Helderberg mountain in the Stellenbosch district, dates back to 1693 when it was part of a much larger farm called Groenrivier (Green River), granted to a free burgher by governor Simon Van Der Steel. In 1919 the owner of the farm, Hennie Malan, sold off half the land to his brother-in-law and set about planting vines on his remaining portion, focusing exclusively on red varieties. He named the farm alto, a reference to it's altitude (some slopes rise as high as 500m above sea level) and his striving for excellence. Alto has 93 hectors under vines. The trellised vineyards cling to the high granite slopes, ideal for the cultivation of red wine varieties Features: - Plum red in colour - Bouquet: Cherries, violets, black olives, some dark chocolate and a hint of tobacco - Taste: Full-bodied and mouth-filling with cherries, tobacco, dark chocolate and a good tannic structure - Food Pairing: Excellent enjoyed on it's own or served with steak, lamb, stews and casseroles Specifications: - Weight: 8kg - Size: 750ml - Material: Glass - Alcohol By Volume: 14% - Country of Origin: South Africa
