Buitenverwachting Cabernet Merlot 2016
The Buitenverwachting Cabernet Merlot is a red wine blend dominated by the Cabernet Sauvignon grape. Beautiful aromas of cassis, plums, dark chocolate, vanilla and cigar box lead onto a complex, structured palate full of ripe, red berry fruit flavours alongside mineral notes and a long satisfying finish. A great mid-week red wine tipple!
