Babylonstoren Nebukadnesar 750ml

This flagship Bordeaux blend is set to be a classic. This is a wine to star at the table where the food should play the supporting role – rare roast beef or kudu fillet are excellent pairings.

The blend is made up of 49% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot, 13.5% petit verdot, 12% cabernet franc, and 0.5% malbec.

Tasting Note

Wondrous graphite and cedar element which seamlessly incorporates every other component – brambles, spiced black cherries, blueberries, plums, origanum, thyme, fresh walnuts and a beautiful floral element of violets and pansies.

Food Pairing

The velvety tannins produce ripples of sappy freshness and bring texture and context to the fruit; sleek, supple and sinuous. This opulent wine befits its royal name and has all the attributes of greatness. Deceptively easy to drink now but will grow in stature and complexity over the next ten years.
