Stonehill Dry Cabernet Sauvignon Ros?

Rich, Satchmo Rose colour. The full, ripe fruited nose literally leaps from the glass. Ripe cherry, ripe plum and strawberry all jostle up front while clean spice follows with a very slight savoury note. Immediate impression of lively softness yet elegant and slow progress across the palate. Flavours roll out revealing a wide range of ripe berries with cherry and strawberry dominant. The slightest sweet oaky notes add the extra dimension while a gentle brush of tannin gives just the little grip most rose wines lack.

Very versatile. Drink well chilled as an apertif and is a natural partner to seared tuna, cold or hot ham, turkey meat and free range roast chicken. A must with a great range of vegetarian dishes especially pastas and anything with mushrooms, peppers and brinjals.
