A Few Good Men Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

Juicy blackcurrant fruit, balanced with a spicy Cedar wood flavor. Although smooth and very drinkable already, this wine will continue to soften and mature for another 2 to 3 years.

This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs excellent with red meat like roasted leg of lam, grilled chops and beef sosaties.
