This classical claret style is made from fully flavoured ripe grapes consists of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 8.5 % Cabernet Franc and 3.5% Petit Verdot to add a little more complexity.
The typical Bordeaux blend is complemented with 2 years maturation in French oak barriques, and a further two years of bottle maturation in controlled cellar. The wine has a complex bouquet of ripe berry fruits and cherries: the dry, full bodied palate has exceptional length. The wine has considerable aging potential as a result of the strong flavour and fineness of tannins.
This is a n excellent to match with richer or fuller flavoured dishes including red meat, dishes with rich sauces and strong cheeses.
