Tasting Notes

Colour: Deep garnet with a youthful ruby rim.
Nose: Elegant aromas of violet, cassis and black cherry layered with graphite, cedar and subtle herbal lift, reflecting the cool Jonkershoek Valley site.
Palate: Refined and structured with concentrated dark fruit, fine mineral tension and silky, well-integrated tannins. The finish is long and poised, showing the hallmark elegance and balance of high-elevation Cabernet.
Grape Variety: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

History of Stark-Condé

Stark-Condé is a South African wine producer created in 1998 by Cuban-American José Stark. Today, the winery produces around 6000 cases of wine a year, and is known for producing some of the best red wines in South Africa.

After working as a graphic designer, Stark moved to South Africa in 1997 with his wife Marie and settled on her family’s estate in the Jonkershoek Valley in Stellenbosch. Stark experimented with a few barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon on the property, which was then known as Oude Nektar. However, after being awarded five stars in the Platter South Africa Wine Guide, Stark turned to winemaking full-time, and Stark-Condé was born.
