A Regal Experience in Every Sip

Indulge in the exquisite Babylonstoren Nebukadnesar, a quintessential South African Bordeaux blend and the flagship wine of Babylonstoren. This luxurious offering is perfect for special occasions or as a thoughtful gift for wine enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes

Babylonstoren Nebukadnesar captivates the palate with its complex flavours, showcasing a blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot, and 5% Malbec. Expect a deep, saturated dark ruby colour and an intriguing fragrance of violets and thyme, with intense blackcurrant and underlying cigar box notes. This wine is superbly crafted, featuring a vibrant multi-layered profile of dark red fruits supported by tight, well-honed tannins. It handles the oak effortlessly, presenting an opulent yet sophisticated character with a long, compelling finish. While satisfying now, it promises to develop and unfold its many treasures with time.

Craftsmanship

Produced at the renowned Babylonstoren estate, this wine reflects a commitment to sustainability and excellence. Each varietal is made separately and matured in new French oak barrels for 23 months. After blending, the wine is left in a tank for a month to marry before being bottled and matured for five months prior to release. The meticulous selection of grapes and traditional winemaking techniques ensure a quality that resonates in every bottle. Previous vintages have raked in numerous awards, including a Gran D'Or at the Michelangelo Awards 2016, a double platinum from the National Wine Challenge, and a gold from the 2016 Vitis Vinifera awards. It's no wonder the Nebukadnesar was counted among the top 100 wines in South Africa for 2016.
