Lea & Sandeman review
Selected from a combination of the younger Cabernet (Sauvignon and Franc) and Merlot vines and wines destined for but selected out of the flagship Rubicon blend. The Cabernet Franc is pronounced on the nose, with green leaf and cloves, but the palate is full of juicy fruit and a crisp acidity.| Purchasing options | |||||||

2008 LADY MAY Grand Vin Glenelly Wines
Stellenbosch South Africa
"A solid, muscular style, exhibiting very Bordeaux-like notes of dark tobacco, mulled black currant and coffee up front, followed by a loamy edge on the broad, cassis bush-tinged finish. Lots of rugged character should flesh out nicely with modest cellaring. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2012"
