Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The bouquet is soft and alluring with aromas of red currant, raspberry, black cherry, and cassis alongside notes of spice. The palate is plush and inviting with ripe red berries, cherry compote and raspberry preserves supported by voluminous silky tannins and a mouth coating texture that provides a lovely weight, finishing round and sumptuous.
Best serving temperature 16° to 19°C .
Food Pairing Notes
Full-bodies Cabernet Sauvignon such as our 2020 Terroir Cabernet Sauvignon pairs best with protein-rich, fatty and umami-driven foods that soften the tannins and highlight the fruit. Rich, hearty foods that match the intensity of the wine are best. Ribeye steaks, short ribs, braised oxtails are excellent meat choices. Beef Bourguignon and Bolognese pastas are also good, hearty matches with this wine. For vegetarian options try lentil or bean stews.
