Wine of Origin ifølge arket: Simonsberg, Stellenbosch. Enkeltmark ifølge arket: Peter Barlow. Producentens noter (engelsk): Introduction: The name of this wine pays tribute to the man who recognized the potential of Rustenberg, and bought the farm in 1941, reuniting the property, restoring its buildings and investing in its potential to make world class wines. The oldest Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard on the estate is named the Peter Barlow block and consistently produces powerful, long-lived Cabernet Sauvignon that is given the best possible treatment in the cellar. Peter's family now continues his legacy. We recommend decanting this wine before serving. Vintage: Following a normal Winter in 2005, Spring was cool and rigorous green harvesting had to be undertaken late in the Summer months due to the slow shoot development and uneven ripening in some varieties. The warm, dry Summer made up for the lower yields, producing very balanced wines harvested at optimum ripeness.
