37% cabernet sauvignon, 32% merlot, 23% cabernet franc, 6% malbec and 2% shiraz, matured in French oak for 18 months. As Paracombe is apt to do, this is a fresh, youthful and delicious Bordeaux blend, the price as seductive as the wine.

Deep red colour with a smidgin of purple in the rim. The bouquet is pungently cassisy with eucalyptus-mint and tomato-bush overtones, the palate dry and slightly astringent, with a certain leanness and austerity to its balance and finish.
