Description
Kanonkop Kadette Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml.
A Stellenbosch Cabernet from one of SA's iconic estates.
Kanonkop is one of the most celebrated wine estates in South Africa, set on the slopes of the Simonsberg in Stellenbosch and farmed by the Krige family for several generations. Multiple-time winner of the prestigious Diners Club Winemaker of the Year title and the Platter's Five Star award, Kanonkop has long been a benchmark for serious South African red wines and is best known internationally for its iconic flagship Pinotage.
The Kadette range — named after the younger vines on the estate — is the family's accessible expression of the Kanonkop wine-making style. The Kadette Cabernet Sauvignon offers the structure and depth of classic Stellenbosch Cabernet at a more everyday-friendly price, made by the same celebrated team behind the estate's flagship bottlings.
Tasting Note:
Nose: Ripe blackcurrant, black cherry, dark chocolate, cedar, dried herbs and a subtle vanilla oak note.
Palate: Full-bodied and structured, with concentrated dark fruit, fine-grained tannins, savoury herbs and a touch of cocoa.
Finish: Long and smooth, with lingering cassis, oak spice and a graceful tannic frame.
Serving Suggestion: Serve at 16–18 °C in a large Bordeaux-style red wine glass. Decant for thirty to sixty minutes to let the wine open up — Kadette Cab benefits noticeably from a little air.
Food Pairing: A natural for serious red-meat dishes — peppered steak, slow-roasted lamb, beef Wellington, oxtail, venison, lamb shank, and beef-and-mushroom pies. Also brilliant with mature Cheddar, hard Italian cheeses, and dark chocolate desserts.
Occasion: A confident host gift, a smart upgrade for a dinner-party red, and a reliable bottle for any red-wine fan exploring Stellenbosch's best estates.
Region: Wine of Origin Stellenbosch, South Africa.
Alcohol: 14% vol. 750ml.
Whether you're a Kanonkop loyalist, gifting a serious wine drinker, or upgrading from everyday Cabernet into estate-quality Stellenbosch territory, Kadette Cabernet Sauvignon delivers proper estate character at a friendly price-point.
