MORE INFORMATION:
Rich and structured Cab Sauv with layers of ripe black currant, dark stone fruits, sweet cigar box, cassis and caramel. Fullbodied and creamy on the mid palate with generous velvety smooth tannins and a complex elegant structure.

Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold, full-bodied red wine with rich tannins and deep flavours, making it perfect for pairing with hearty, savoury dishes. • Red Meat: Grilled steak, lamb chops, and prime rib bring out the wine’s structure and complement its depth. • Rich Stews & Braised Dishes: Pork Ribs, Beef Ribs, oxtail stew, and slow-cooked short ribs enhance its deep fruit and spice notes. • Hard & Aged Cheeses: Sharp cheddar, aged Gouda, and Parmesan pair beautifully with its bold character. • Grilled Vegetables: Mushrooms, bell peppers, and eggplant enhance its earthy complexity. • Dark Chocolate & Desserts: High-cocoa dark chocolate, a black forest cake or Christmas cake make for a decadent pairing
