Bon Courage Inkarà Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

2008 International Wine Challenge - Commended
Jacques Bruwer, the winemaker initiated a flagship range, called Inkará. Inkará is a play on his children’s names (Inge, Karli and André) and it pays tribute to the fourth generation of Bruwer’s on the Estate. Since its launch in 2001, this premium range has proven to produce excellent wines. These wines are produced only from single vineyards. Both the Inkará Shiraz and Inkará Cabernet Sauvignon have been recognized for their superior quality.
A classic red wine from a noble cultivar. This complex wine features rich spicy flavors and smokiness on the nose. It is a finely balanced wine to suit every discerning palate and will achieve greater body and a more velvet feel with another two years of careful cellaring.

Enjoy with good quality meat dishes including steak, stews or a roast and can be enjoyed with a selection of cheeses.
