Bon Courage Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2005

A medium-bodied wine with lush and expansive blackcurrent, smoky, spicy and peppery flavours. An absolute divine nose, which captures the fruitiness of the black grape. Tones of tobacco combined with walnuts and berries make this an outstanding blend. Soft oak gives this blend body and a smooth texture.

To be served with hearty roasts, steak or oxtail stew or poultry dishes.
