SOLD OUT

Tokara Zondernaam Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

A rich, opaque plum colour, with a red rim. The nose shows intense cassis cherries and cedar with underlying hints of toasted oak and lead pencil. On the palate there is a great purity of fruit showing dense dark fruit with a hint of mocha and spice. The wine finishes with firm dry tannins with a long aftertaste of fennel and mocha.

Enjoy with grilled veal chops or roast pork.
