Back Story & Wine Information

A silky-smooth Bordeaux-style red blend of skilfully selected noble varieties, led by Cabernet Sauvignon. Classically styled, full-bodied and food-friendly, each component of this velvety blend is first aged independently in oak before blending. After blending, a portion of the wine is returned to barrel for a final phase of aging to add elegant layers of complexity and give the wine a smooth taste and pleasant finish.
