Waldweben - 4G Wines

At the end of 2011 René Gabriel receives a sampler of forest weaving from 4G Winery winery on the Cape between Stellenbosch and Sommerset-West. The contents of bottle 1'217 are described by him in the following words: G.210 The First Growth of the Cape. Very dark color; Carmine red with violet reflections, delicate ruby ​​edge. The bouquet shows more spice than fruit; Lots of licorice, a lot of ethereal, freshly broken, black peppercorns, rib calf pills, Brazil tobacco and cloves. Returning to the upper nose, you will find cassis, blackberries, black elderberry and a defensive sweetness of cooked, black cherries. This new yet completely unknown blend of 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Shiraz, 12% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc has absolutely cult potential. .... Gabriel gives 19/20 points.Today, a good three years later, we are in the vintage 2013 and find further reviews of 19/20 by Gabriel for the year 2012. How will the price per bottle develop? A good question, if we look alone at the equipment of this exceptional wine, we are aware of the high quality: The bottles are a special format from France, the capsules are made in Austria, the Iroko wood for the boxes comes from Ghana, the high quality cork comes from Portugal and is subjected to a multi-stage process of selection, the labels are made in a printing press in Switzerland, Sebastian Blinde from Berlin has designed this.
