Lovane, being a boutique estate, enabled the Gous family to rate each barrel’s tannins, structure, complexity and palate and to then select specific barrels to be blended together – resulting in the six different 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Xhosa names were carefully chosen for the wines. The flagstones wines are Utata, Tamkulu, Isivuno and Abantwana.

Utata is named after Philip for all the love and enthusiasm he put into the vineyards and the cellar in producing the wine. This Cabernet Sauvignon is well structured wine with deep, complex ripe blackberry flavours.

Only 1,580 bottles produced.
