NOTES

TASTING NOTES

Medium to full red with youthful crimson hues. Complex choc-mint nose with integrated subtle oak. Cabernet Sauvignon imparts a backbone of cassis overlayed with plum fruits from Merlot. A fine round palate showing fruit sweetness. Medium bodied in structure, it has fine, silky tannins showing elegance and restraint. Try it with any medium to full flavoured vegetarian or meat dishes. Excellent on release and will age over the next 6-8 years. The mint overtones are expected to remain and be further complexed with cedar characters as the wine matures.
