Dornier Donatus Red 2006

Due to the superb harvest conditions of 2006 this truly classical wine possesses all the attributes of an astounding wine. A nose dominated by fragrant black currant and cassis fruit stemming from the Cabernet Sauvignon component while the Cabernet franc lends it freshness and delicate violet aromas, all backed up by the fine nuances of French oak. The palate is firm yet undeniably elegant, polished and beautifully balanced with an immensely persistent finish as one would expect from a Cabernet Sauvignon dominated wine.
