Meerendal Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot 2006

The wine has delicious sweet cassis fruit flavours on the nose, with dark fruit cake nuances and a hint of spice. Rich fruit flavours with well balanced oak and tannin rounds the wine off on the palate.

This blended red wine will complement hearty dishes like lamb stew, oxtail and goulash or try it with mushroom risotto.
