Western Cape Cabernet Sauvignon

Kanonkop Estate

Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Starting to hit its straps at 8 years old
Excellent Cab Sauvignon well balanced with integrated tannins and alcohol
Just so positive about the consistency and value of this wine over the last 30 years.
I first “found” this at Morton’s in HK in 1996 and it’s been a favourite ever since, always with a good NY cut or porterhouse!

Oh my gosh I've been to Morton's in Hong Kong 4 times. Tsim Sha Tsui (fun to say since I was 7) 😅

Hi @Dave Top of Sheraton Hotel and great views of HK, lived there for 6 years and regularly visit. My best Morton’s story happened in San Francisco when my then teenage son took on the challenge of eating kilo porterhouse and you got a second serving free, I had to restrain him from devouring a third, he’s now 6’ 7” and a big fellow - Morton’s always had a good wine list. Hope you enjoyed your time in HK.😀

That's great! I lived in the Philippines for about 18 years, and in the 1980's, Hong Kong was a favorite vacation destination. Toys R Us, apples, milk, Cadbury chocolate... of course the Philippines has modernized and now there's a Starbucks on every corner. Last time I was on Nathan Street was around 10 years ago, and I'd love to go back. Sounds like you knew how to grow a big boy! Lots of protein 😅 Cheers!

Moss Wood Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

This 2011 is drinking very nicely and is worthy of its accolades, lovely crimson rim to deep ruby centre, nice tobacco flavours on nose and mouth filling with integrated tannins.
Smooth and long lasting aftertaste
