Devonair Cabernet Sauvignon 2000

Veritas 2001 - Double Gold
Platter - 4 Stars
Dense ruby red. Sweet on entry, the juicy fruit flavours fan out on mid-palate: chewy ripe, succulent blackcurrant and cherry fruit blend harmoniously with the sweet vanillaâ€™s and warm spice of French oak, finishing with a swirl of a dark chocolate.

Ideally suited for prime cuts of beef.
