Description

The Beyerskloof Eerste Ry Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is the estate’s flagship Cabernet, sourced from 33-year-old vineyards that mark the original plantings of Beyerskloof. The 2022 vintage delivers a classic Stellenbosch profile, combining power, structure, and balance in a wine built to age.

The nose is intense and layered, showing cassis and dark fruit, complemented by notes of spicy cedar, pencil shavings, and subtle oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and structured, with concentrated fruit supported by firm, well-integrated tannins. Hints of dark chocolate and spice add depth, leading to a long, smooth finish that carries both richness and precision.

A serious, cellar-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine pairs beautifully with matured ribeye, game meats such as whitetail deer, elk, or kudu, and richly flavored dishes.
