Wine tasting notes

These low-yielding vineyards provide incredibly concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. This blend (which includes a touch of Malbec, too), has a hugely aromatic impact with lifted black olive and tobacco leaf and hints of sweet plum pudding and chocolate. The palate is generous, with finely grained, mouth-watering tannin backed by toast and spice. Enjoy now or hold as it will hold for several years.

Food matching

The perfect accompaniment to spicy Eastern dishes where its ripe fruit and textured mouthfeel are a great foil to strong spices.
