Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

Robertson, Breede River Valley, South AfricaMedium dark with a touch of amber at the edge. The nose is a classic mix of cedar, black liquorice and crushed raspberries. The attack is warm and spicy with dark earthy, forest floor and black cherry fruit flavours with a dollop of vanilla and oak. Solid if ordinary cabernet best with pizza or meaty spaghetti dishes.Tasted: 11 September 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
