Adam Mason Raised by Wolves Old School Cinsault Cabernet Sauvignon 37.5cl 2017

Vol- 37.5cl

The Old School pays homage to the days when many South African benchmark Cabs contained more Cinsault than Cabernet Sauvignon, and today are hailed as examples of some of the finer aged red wines. Viva Cinsault!

Composed of 2/3rds Cinsault and 1/3rd Cabernet Sauvignon, the vinification of both varieties was carried out in separate concrete ‘kuipe’ before transferring to barrels for 18 months maturation.

With a lengthy, successful stint at Klein Constantia under his belt (amongst other things), Adam Mason is currently Mulderbosch's head winemaker, one of South Africa's established vinous stars. His wines are made from a selection of unique vineyards from his travels around the Cape and are produced in limited quantities, making them rare examples of the Cape’s most interesting vineyards. Small batch, experimental wines like these are at the forefront of what has transformed the Cape into one of the most dynamic regions in the world, the name parodying the constant one-upmanship of winemakers.

My wine is a single vineyard." ... "Yeah, well my wine is naturally fermented." ... "Oh yeah, well my wine is hand sorted by berry." And Adam's response: "Well my wines are all of the above, and I was raised by wolves."
The Raised by Wolves wines are all vinified with minimalistic intervention to allow the true character of the varietal and the site-specific terroir to shine through.
