A medium bodied wine, expressing rich dark berry fruit, sweet spice and light oak characters.

2016 vintage was an early one. An ideal growing season of slightly above average temperatures and dry conditions produced outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon harvested at optimum maturity.

A juicy barbecued steak, slow cooked lamb shanks or vegetarian fajitas.

Enjoy now or will cellar well up to five years.

This is our "go to" wine mid-week when we just feel like 1 glass each with a suitable dinner dish (the Founders Block Chardonnay 375ml covering many other dishes). The 2016 is a bit more "in your face" fruit than previous Vintages we've ordered, so at only 4 years old, could do with more time in the bottle, to soften and round out a bit more. Nevertheless, it is perfect for the purpose it was made and released for!
