Dark ruby, slight garmet colour, spicy, red berry fruit from the Shiraz and rich cassis, violets and soft tannins from the Cabernet Sauvignon; subtle mocha, cedar complexity from barrel maturation; a full-bodied, barrel matured dry red wine with a smooth, velvet texture and long finish.
Carpetbagger steak - a beef fillet stuffed with muscles, oysters, fresh parsley and bits of bacon - accompanied with baby potatoes in butter and parsley and an obligatory garden salad with balsamic & lime dressing. This full-bodied blend can be accompanied by red meat dishes, poultry (grilled duck breasts with Touriga and plum reduction) and game.
