95 / 100"Cabernet sauvignon in all its glory, and while it's on the riper spectrum, this is by no means jammy. It's more fresh satsuma plum and blackberry. Laden with flavours from soy sauce, mint chocolate to blackstrap licorice, unfurling over a full-bodied palate to be met by persuasive, plentiful tannins with the texture of cocoa. All in all, impressive."

"Medium deep colour. Fresh rose garden, plum, slight rhubarb maraschino cherry aromas. Sweet fruit, rhubarb, red cherry flavours, fine chalky tannins. Finishes al dente firm and long. Very attractive wine."

Tasting Notes
This beautiful wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc - a classic trio of Bordeaux varieties that are balanced to perfection to produce a regal and elegant Cabernet that will mature gracefully in the cellar.
This is a premium wine in every sense of the word. There are plenty of reasons why you see this wine listed at many top restaurants around the world.
It's everything that is wonderful about Cabernet from this part of the world.
