161 Kanonkop Paul Sauer 2008 750ml 6 (1 x 6) R5 500 – 7 500 PROVENANCE Wine Cellar ITEM NOTES Kanonkop is often described as the South African equivalent of a Grand Cru or First Growth. Owned by the fourth generation Krige family, Abri Beeslaar is their long-term winemaker who has won International Winemaker of the year an incredible 3 times. Paul Sauer is their internationally acclaimed, long-aging Bordeaux blend. The elegant 2008 is reaching its plateau of maturity and will keep for another decade. ‘Very classic and perhaps old fashioned in style but well made.’ Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 90/100
