Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The Five Barrels Cabernet Sauvignon from the Winery Louisvale is a flagship wine composed exclusively from the five best barrels of an outstanding vintage. It impresses with its opulent aroma of black cherries, cassis, and plums, complemented by fine notes of cedarwood, vanilla, and a hint of mocha. The long aging in high-quality French oak ensures an excellent structure, silky tannins, and a finish that lasts for minutes. A wine with great aging potential that reflects the essence of Louisvale in the highest perfection.

Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
Ratings
Der Five Barrels von Louis Vale zeigt sich vielschichtig und elegant. In der Nase reife dunkle Früchte, Cassis und feine Röstaromen. Am Gaumen ausgewogen und samtig, mit gut integrierten Tanninen, würziger Tiefe und dezenter Holznote. Der Abgang ist rund und anhaltend. Ein harmonischer südafrikanischer Rotwein mit Anspruch und Stil.
