2021 Lindemans St George Cabernet Sauvignon

100% from St George Vineyard. Each batch, of which there were two, were berry sorted and fermented in 10t open fermenters for up to 10 days before being pressed and filled to French barrels for maturation. St George is notable in its youth for its tight tannin structure and the 2021 St George Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon lives up to that reputation, having a palate with a core of fleshy cassis fruit, dark chocolate with tobacco leaf nuances tightly wrapped in fine chalky tannins adding to the long finish. These tannins will become more supple over time releasing their grip on the fruit and revealing a classic St George from an exceptional vintage.
