Africa Five Dry Red 5 litre NV

Each component of this blend has its own distinctive flavour, yet together they create a harmony of cedar, berries, dark chocolate, fennel and oak. An elegant delight. Lighter in style for easy consumption.

It accompanies many dishes, especially those with a tomato base such as Italian and meat dishes, for example Osso Bucco and Sirloin.
