Price per case (6 bottles)

A wine that shows typical characteristics of a cabernet sauvignon, with good fruit and wood structure. The palate picks up the fruit and cigar box, with some savoury flavours coming through. Good use of wood and tannin giving this wine an excellent structure and balance. The wine has very good storage potential.
