Plaisir Estate Red Blend

Plaisir Estate Red

Colour: Ruby Garnett. Bouquet: Aromatic nose with black cherry fruit and hints of spice and vanilla and oak. Taste: Full-bodied, yet elegant and mature. This is a fruitdominated wine with blackberries, cassis, white chocolate followed by some cigar box and light pencil shavings. Subtle tannins linger with sweet red berry fruit on the finish.
