Stellenzicht Wines' Tristone Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 has been awarded a gold medal and an outstanding 95-point score at the Decanter World Wine Awards, marking a significant achievement for this vintage and a proud moment for the Stellenzicht team.
This recognition reflects the consistency and intent that underpin every step of its creation, from meticulous vineyard selection through to disciplined cellar work. It is a result that speaks to structure, precision, and a continued pursuit of balance, while highlighting the dedication and expertise of winemaker L'Ré Hughes and the entire Stellenzicht Wines team.
The 2023 vintage delivers layered dark fruit, refined tannins, and a focused, elegant finish. It is a Cabernet Sauvignon shaped by balance and restraint, carrying both depth and definition in equal measure. True to its Stellenbosch origins, it expresses both site and season with clarity and confidence.
For Stellenzicht Wines, this accolade represents more than recognition. It is a validation of a continued commitment to producing wines that stand confidently alongside the world's most respected benchmarks. It reinforces the standard we set for Tristone and the care taken in every vintage,
from vineyard to bottle.
We extend our congratulations to L'Ré Hughes and the Stellenzicht team, whose dedication contributed to this achievement. We are proud to share this milestone and invite you to experience the 2023 vintage, now internationally recognised with a gold medal and 95-point score for its quality, character, and sense of place.
The Stellenzicht Tristone Cabernet Sauvignon 2023's very aromatic nose of cassis, blue fruit, and cedar notes is balanced by fine tannins, pencil lead, and a long, lingering finish on the palate.
