Chommie is slang for “friend” in the gorgeous lands of South Africa, where this Cabernet Sauvignon was made. It’s produced in the Western Cape region, where the cool afternoon sea breeze creates favorable conditions for ripening. These grapes went through an extended cold maceration (or a “cold soak”) before fermentation - where they were treated gently to produce soft tannins. The end result is a full-bodied Cabernet with lovely dark fruit aromas that’s balanced by spice and herb notes. In other words, a good friend to have by your side.
