This is a classic, firmly structured Cabernet with a firm, dry tannic back bone. Matured for 12 months in French and American Oak, the wine displays opaque crimson colour. Aroma of earth and truffle with notes of mint, blackcurrant and liquorice. The earthy flavours are quite prominent on the palate and are supported by plum and liquorice counter points which are over come by long lingering dry dusty Cabernet tannins. Cellar 4-5 years.
RATING: 86/100
