The blend is comprised of 74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec and 11% Petit Verdot. An outstanding blend, with excellent structure to ensure good cellaring potential. Opaque black crimson colour with black purple hue. Excellent nose. Aroma of blackcurrant, liquorice, spice and vanilla. The palate has plenty of weight, with fine dry tannin structure, providing the necessary backbone for longevity. The fruit flavours are fully ripened. Confectionary, blackcurrant, white pepper and spice are present in abundance and perfectly integrated. Aftertaste of dark cherry, blackcurrant and liquorice.
