Devonair Dry Red 1998

This is medium ruby red coloured wine. The aromas are strong with raspberry and blue berry fruitiness on the palate. This lightly wooded blend is smooth and down-to-earth but there’s enough body for the wine to be enjoyed on its own, or with casual food.

Slightly chilled in summer or with poolside fare such as a cold meat and salad buffet.
