Grown on the 18th Century Marlbrook title of Klein Constantia Estate, this is a classic Bordeaux-style blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot and cabernet franc.
Dark plum colour. Elegant herbaceousness, light berry fruit and cassis nose. Herby flavours with touches of mint, coffee and chocolate show the merlot influence. Well balanced.
