A fusion of sour cherries, vanilla, spice and violets entice the senses.  These intense flavours follow through to the palate, resulting in a full-bodied and lingering finish.

This unique blend combines the mulberry and plum fruit of Tauriga Nacional with the rich raspberry and chocolate aromas of Cabernet Sauvignon, creating a wine with ample soft tannins and a spicy finish.

Overgaauw is a wine estate of distinction situated on south facing slopes overlooking the Stellenbosch Valley. Deep granite soils and cool sea breezes enable the ideal cultivation of noble grape varieties.  The resultant wines are nurtured to perfection by the inherited passion and experience of four generations of Van Velden winemakers.

The Peter Barlow pays tribute to the man who had the foresight to purchase Rustenberg in the 1940s and invest in making it the icon it is today.  No expense is spared in the making of this wine:  it is sourced from hand-harvested Cabernet Sauvignon from acclaimed vineyards on the slopes of the Simonsberg mountain in Stellenbosch, and aged for 24 months in French oak.  It exhibits an abundance of cassis and blackcurrant, with hints of cedar and cigar box, plenty of body and a structured backbone of fine-grained tannins.  Patient cellaring of this wine will be rewarded.
