Juno Cabernet Sauvignon

3 ratings
 
 

A beautiful deep red colour, this wine is a smooth red blend that perfectly combines the more masculinestructure of Cabernet Sauvignon with soft, gentle tannins of Merlot.

The nose entices with subtle tobaccoleaf, green pepper and fynbos, opening up to an abundance of mulberry. A fresh, elegant palate with along, smooth finish.
