STYLE

This is a multi-dimensional, well balanced, full bodied red wine with intricate complexities. The nose and palate are made up of layers of aromas and flavours of plums, mint, dark chocolate, spices, white pepper and cigar box. The mouth feel is soft and rounded and the finish lingering and elegant. A unique and magnificent drinking experience.

SERVING SUGGESTION

To enjoy optimally this wine should be decanted for a least 1 hour before drinking. Serve with red meat and game dishes with well flavoured (but not overpowering or spicy) sauces.
