Muratie Cabernet Sauvignon 2004

Colour: Deep ruby with intensive centre.
Nose: Violets, blackcurrants, hints of cedar wood and cigar box character in the back round.
Palate: Great balance and integration of fruit and oak. The wine has a strong mid palate and offers a full, lingering aftertaste. This wine has a great potential to age gracefully.
