Bordeaux Blends (containing two or more of the following: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec).

Subtle violet florality to an appealing dark fruit compote nose. Those same delicious fruitcake flavours are found on the palate, with a dusting of baking spice and underpinned by a warm cedary platform. Lithe, supple and gently rounded, the wine is soft-textured and approachable but balanced and well resolved with a long finish.

A good spaghetti bolognaise, lasagne, braised beef short ribs or even pepperoni pizza
