A wonderfully lively Cabernet Sauvignon . Delicate aromas of mocha and raspberry on the nose. The palate presents black olive and raspberry again with lingering mocha notes. Gentle tannins in the mid-palate with nicely balanced acidity give the wine a long and lingering finish. Strong and typical Cabernet. Ready to drink young but with aging potential of approx. 4 to 6 years.
AGEING
15 months in French barriques in second and third filling. Ready to drink young. Increases with storage.

WHY A MAGNUM BOTTLE CAN BE IDEAL
At 1.5 liters, a magnum is twice the size of a typical wine bottle. You can drink a magnum over several days. 1.5 liters make around 14 glasses of wine.
If it is a quality wine, after the bottle has been opened and you have had a glass or two, you can simply put the cork back in. Place the wine in the refrigerator. The cold prevents oxidation and, on top of that, the wines love a bit of air and really come into their own on the second or third day. Pour a glass full five minutes before continuing to enjoy it and the wine will soon have reached a temperature of around 17 degrees. Just right to enjoy!
Magnums are definitely a small niche – but it’s always worth storing a few in the basement. Because they age more slowly due to the lower oxygen to wine ratio in the bottle compared to standard 75cl bottles. Do the experiment, we hope you enjoy it!
