Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
🎨 Color : bright ruby red
🌺 Aroma : juicy blackberries complemented by warm spice and pepper notes
🍷 Palate : red cherries and blackberries, plus notes of black pepper and a slightly spicy undertone
🍇 Body : velvety mouthfeel with a medium-strong structure, the fruit intensity together with fine tannins forms a long and great finish
A wonderful red wine that perfectly brings together the red fruit notes of Cabernet Sauvignon with the spicy undertones of Shiraz grapes ♥ Thanks to the subtle tannin structure, the wine is also a great choice for red wine beginners to discover this versatile type of wine! This cuvée goes very well with oven-baked vegetables and Italian cuisine, but also with hearty stews as well as roast beef and pepper steaks.
