Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Style: Made in a classical yet approachable style with ripe black fruit aromas and a touch of oak spice. The palate is generous, with soft tannins and a long flavourful finish. Serving: Will complement grilled meats, casseroles, oven roasted vegetables and hearty pasta dishes. Keeping: Delicious now. Will benefit from further bottle maturation.
