Kumusha Cabernet Sauvignon

A deep, red to black colour wine with an intensely vibrant rim. The bouquet delights with beautiful red berry fruit aromas. The palate brings red cherries and red currants, with a hint of mulberries and a touch of savouriness. It is incredibly smooth with velvety tannins and a lovely long finish. Summed up as soft, supple and satisfying – it will not disappoint.

Born in Harare, Zimbabwe, Tinashe worked his way up to the position of manager at a grocery store when Zimbabwe fell into economic crisis. After moving to Cape Town in South Africa, he found work polishing cutlery at the fine dining restaurant, The Roundhouse. After being promoted to waiter and without any prior experience of wine, Tinashe learned from the beverage director, eventually landing a job as wine steward at Nobu. Having fallen head over heels for wine, the ache to try his own hand at winemaking could not be resisted. A friendship with Attie Louw, a winemaker from the family estate Opstal in the Slanghoek valley, led to the opportunity for Tinashe to blend his own wines and in 2017 Kumusha wines was founded.
