ROYAL 2010 CABERNET SAUVIGNON/ CABERNET FRANC RED WINE 750ML 14% ALC
TASTING NOTESThis is only the second release of the PengWine Royal. Having been cellared in some of the best French Oak barrels money can buy, this blend is a premium delight. One can taste medium plum color with a touch of blackberries. On the nose the wine is deep and variety of aromas, like dried figs and violet nuances with a touch of hazelnut and fresh oregano. On the palate the wine explodes with brilliant plum , cedarwood and raspberry flavours, mint and nutmeg, while the tannins are round but firm. The acidity is high and well balanced with the fruit and tannins. The wine is dry but fresh and it is well rounded while components are smoothly integrated. The flavor can linger in the mouth for ages.DESCRIPTIONThe Royal Penguin is among the most majestic of the breed and our PengWine Royal is as equally regal and just as sophisticated. A premiere blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, PengWine Royal is a smooth, complex wine that promises a unique tasting experience that delivers with every glass.In the development of this wine, only the best grapes were selected.
