Cabernet Sauvignon

Description
This wine has a beautiful bright ruby colour. There are aromas of cranberry, subtle cassis and blackberry on the nose complimented by underlying notes of five spice and the slightest hint of vanilla. The palate is packed with delicious dark fruit interwoven in spice and light toasty notes from the barrels. A tannin profile reminiscent of silky dark chocolate with poised freshness round off the finish. This wine will drink well now but will benefit from cellaring.
Food pairing: Enjoy with lightly smoked Springbok carpaccio, grilled veal chops, meaty stews or a fantastic steak.
