Koopmanskloof Dry Red 2006
This is a full bodied, wood flavoured wine with a ruby red colour, blended from 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Carignan.
The Cabernet Sauvignon is cultivated as 50% bush vine and 50 % trellis vine on Loam Sand in an east - west direction on the Bottelary Hills, which is drip irrigated twice; firstly for 24 hours at veraison, and later 12 hours, and possibly another 6 hours during a very warm season. It yields approximately 5 ton/ha. The grapes are harvested at 24°B. The must is inoculated with D254 yeast inoculant, and the wine receives 4 g/liter wood chips.
The Carignan is planted on Sand Loam against the Bottelary Hills with an east - west row direction. It is managed as Dry Land, and sprinkled once at veraison. The vines yield approximately 7.0 ton/ha. The grapes are harvested at 23 - 24°B. The must is inoculated with NT116 yeast inoculant, and the wine receives 2 g/liter wood chips during fermentation, and a further 2 g/liter wood chips over 3 months after a subsequent malolactic fermentation.
This wine is best enjoyed with red meats and pasta dishes.
