AYAMA Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

The wine shows good varietal characteristics with upfront cherry fruit. Excellent follow-through on the palate where the soft/ripe tannins linger on the senses. The wine has good acid structure that balances well with the tannic structure and contributes to its elegant finish.

Ideal with ostrich steak, grilled rosemary-flavoured lamb, oxtail, steak.
