Description

  • Rich red fruits
  • Cassis
  • Black olive
  • Classical structure

"A blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon, malbec, cabernet franc and petit verdot. A rich, weighty red with plum, dark berry, spice, toasty oak and liquorice flavours. Good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Apr 2021

Deepest crimson red.  Brooding aromatically with notes of cassis, black olive, dried tobacco and the faintest hint of caramel.  The wine has lovely focus on the palate with dark fruits framed by fine tannins to deliver a classical structure with an excellent future ahead.

Food Pairing: Matches beautifully with beef fillet, mushrooms and a black-peppered sauce.
