Beeslaar The Sacrament 750ml What is The Sacrament? This Bordeaux-styled blend is a celebration of nature’s profound influence on winemaking – an ode to the soil, climate, and the Creator who gifts us these elements.The name “The Sacrament” reflects our gratitude for the divine elements that make great wine possible. As winemakers, we are merely stewards, working in harmony with the Creator’s design. This blend is a tribute to the sacred interplay of nature’s gifts, unaltered and uncreated by human handsMeticulously crafted with deep respect for its origins, The Sacrament reflects the unique character of the Helderberg and Banhoek regions, where vineyards thrive in decomposed granite soils on south-westerly slopes.Hand-harvested grapes were carefully destemmed, sorted, and partially crushed before fermenting in open-top fermenters. Over six days, the cap was gently punched down every six hours to enhance colour extraction.Aged for 19 months in 100% new French oak barrels, the wine underwent two rackings to achieve balance and structure.The final blend, which varies from vintage to vintage, is meticulously assembled from the finest barrels to express the vineyard’s terroir with clarity and precision.The nose is an inviting blend of cassis, ripe red berries, dark chocolate, and tobacco, complemented by subtle hints of graphite and delicate herbs – the quintessential hallmarks of a refined Bordeaux-styled blend. The palate is bold and intricately layered, with a well-structured yet harmonious balance of fruit and oak, leading to a rich, dry finish that isdistinctly Beeslaar in character. -
