Rascallion with Love From the Cape Cab Sauv 2022
Cabernet Sauvignon
Description
Rascallion Wines is a contemporary Cape producer rooted in Western Cape production, committed to approachable, fruit-forward expressions that celebrate South Africa’s sun-kissed Cabernet Sauvignon and other classic cultivars. The With Love From the Cape range is designed to offer everyday enjoyment with personality - wines that speak of ripe fruit, gentle oak and smooth drinkability without heavy technicality.
The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon comes from vineyards across coastal and inland sites in the Western Cape, where warm days and cooling breezes help Cabernet grapes achieve rich fruit concentration balanced by freshness. Maturation typically includes around 10 months in oak to round the tannins and add subtle spice and texture.
This is a wine to share with friends and food - expressive of its region and crafted with a light-footed yet considered touch.
Colour:
A clear, medium ruby with youthful brightness - a sign of vibrant varietal character and gentle extraction.
Nose:
Primary aromas of dark plum and berry fruit come first, with hints of blackcurrant and a touch of cedar spice from the oak ageing. There’s a pleasing softness to the perfume that invites the first sip.
Palate:
The palate is medium-full and juicy, showing ripe red and dark fruit flavours - black cherry and plum - balanced by gentle acidity. Soft, rounded tannins support the fruit, while touches of milk chocolate and oak spice lend a smooth mid-palate richness.

- Food Pairing : Rascallion With Love From the Cape Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a great partner for hearty yet uncomplicated dishes. Its medium-full body and rounded tannins make it a natural with grilled lamb chops or braai-style steak, where the smoky char and juicy meat amplify the wine’s dark fruit flavours. It also complements beef potjie or slow-roasted beef brisket, where the savoury richness matches the wine’s structure. For a vegetarian twist, a mushroom and lentil ragù with rosemary echoes the wine’s subtle herbal spice and deep berry notes, making every bite and sip more rewarding.
