How to Serve

Pour it with a meal. Its ripe dark fruit and fine tannins suit red meat dishes.

Ideal for: weeknight red meat dinners, sharing over the table, and a present for a Cabernet fan.

Pairs with: for its ripe dark fruit and fine tannins we suggest char siu, black pepper beef, Indian-Malaysian mutton curry and Malay beef rendang.
