McGregor Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot

Veritas 2007 - Bronze
A harmonious blend of these two noble cultivars give prominent nut, ripe berries and a peppery flavour with undertones of lovely vanilla toasting. On the aftertaste the sweet berries and vanilla complimented the soft tannins and berry flavour.

An ideal companion for red meat dishes.
