Plaisir Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 Magnum

Product information "Plaisir Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 Magnum"

The Plaisir Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 is a powerful yet elegant red wine that beautifully reflects the distinctive style of the Simonsberg. The grapes come from selected vineyards on the south-eastern slopes of the mountain at Plaisir Wine Estate. Here, the 12- to 15-year-old vines grow in weathered granite soils. The surrounding peaks protect the vineyards from the intense afternoon sun, encouraging slow ripening. The result is a layered Cabernet Sauvignon with concentrated fruit and harmoniously ripened tannins.

On the nose, the wine reveals an expressive bouquet of dark blueberries, redcurrants and delicate graphite notes. Intense berry fruit is accompanied by a subtle mineral nuance that adds depth. The interplay of dark and red fruit with the distinctive graphite character highlights its classic Cabernet Sauvignon style.

On the palate, Plaisir Cabernet Sauvignon is full-bodied, structured and beautifully balanced. Concentrated fruit flavours echo the elegant bouquet and combine with ripe, powerful tannins. Despite its pronounced structure, the wine maintains a remarkable balance between fruit intensity and tannin weight. Layered flavours develop a lingering presence, leading to a long and expressive finish.

The 18 months of maturation in French oak barrels give Plaisir Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 additional structure and depth. Careful hand harvesting and controlled fermentation with extended skin maceration ensure intense extraction of colour, flavour and tannins. With its considerable ageing potential, this characterful red wine is an excellent choice for special occasions and pairs beautifully with hearty beef dishes, game or mature cheese.

Plaisir: French flair at the Cape

The vineyards of the Plaisir estate stretch out at the foot of the Simonsberg. It was founded on 1 December 1693 by Charles Marais, a Huguenot who was looking for a better life for his family in South Africa. Marais was one of the few Frenchmen who already had experience in viticulture when he arrived in the Cape and the estate was one of the first in the region to cultivate vines. Situated between Franschhoek and Paarl, the French influences can still be felt on the estate today. The name Plaisir comes from the founding family's hometown in France, Le Plessis Marly. Over time, it became Plaisir de Merle, which means "pleasure".

Plaisir wines are fruity, spicy and complex

The wines of the estate are also a great pleasure. The focus is on the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc, which originally come from France, and the wines are matured in French oak barrels. The grape varieties are fermented individually and blended only shortly before bottling so that they can develop their character in the best possible way. The result: complex wines that are both spicy and fruity. The white wines of the Plaisir collection are well balanced, while the red wines convince with well-integrated oak notes and soft tannins. The creations of the Reserve Range are incredibly complex and the red wine blend Grand Plaisir is the flagship of the estate. Visitors to Plaisir can taste the expressive wines in the tasting room, which is located in a converted barn dating back to 1823, or enjoy the wonderful atmosphere in the shade of old oak trees. The restaurant Plaisir Market serves light meals.

Plaisir is Conservation Champion of the WWF

In addition to the expressive wines that tantalise the senses, Plaisir has plenty to offer for the eyes. The Manor House, built in 1764, is one of the earliest and finest examples of unique Cape Dutch architecture, and the Water Mill – a replica of the historic mill created by Jacob Marais for his wife Maria in the 18th century – are architecturally interesting structures and keep the history of the estate alive to this day. This is also true of the wine cellar, built in 1993, which echoes many symbolic elements. Particularly striking are the gargoyles in the shape of griffins on the walls, which are supposed to ward off evil spirits, and the doves on the windows are a sign of peace and the new South Africa. The griffin – a mythical creature that is half eagle and half lion – also adorns the winery's logo. According to legend, a griffin guards great treasures and can thus be understood as the guardian over the vineyards of Plaisir. By combining the farsightedness of the eagle and the courage of the lion, the animal embodies the visions of previous generations on the one hand and serves as a signpost for the future on the other. To ensure this future, Plaisir is committed to flora and fauna and is one of only 38 wine estates in the Cape to have been awarded the coveted status of Conservation Champion by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).
