MORE INFORMATION:
Concentrated dark fruit aromas of blackcurrant and blue berries which follow through to the palate. Pinecone and black pepper scents are in harmony with fruit, creating a full-bodied complex wine. Beautiful tightness on the palate with dried herb nuances emphasizes the cool climate terroir. The wine has long, full finish that lingers with a blueberry aftertaste.
Elegant and balanced; our Cabernet Sauvignon flavours of plums and blueberry display the beauty of subtlety. Restrained dark berry flavours with a high acidity lend itself to be enjoyed with roasted “in-the-bone” Marrow on brioche, Pork and chicken liver terrine or hearty pork knuckle broth. A winter winner!
