"The 2015 vintage was a dry year, except for the late winter and the summer, which were both quite normal. The vegetative cycle was also dry, save for the months of June through August. The year experienced normal temperatures, with a slightly cooler-than-average growth season. In short, a dry year with little rainfall and average temperatures."
The nose opens with dark, brooding aromas of rooty spice, herbs and prunes with hints of cedarwood. The palate is tight at the core with typical warm-climate Cabernet flavours of currant, toast, vanilla and noble tannins and great acidity.
Pairs with rich red meat dishes and spiced aubergine tagine.
