WineDiva's Review

A stamp of South Africa, this savoury and intense Cabernet offers smoked black plum and black currents, roasted herbs, peppery spices, roasting coffee beans and bittersweet chocolate aromas. It has the same smoked, savoury character in the mouth - grilling meat, bittersweet cocoa, spice rub and black fruit flavours. It is smooth, has good freshness and concentration and is supple on the palate with an extensive finish.
