LANDSKROON PAUL HUGO RED 2021
R70.00 – R420.00
A blend of classic cultivars Cabernet Franc, Shiraz and Merlot with a complex concentration of fruit and flavour, an easy quaffer for fun times.
Pleasantly refreshing if chilled in summer. Good accompaniment to cheese, light barbeque meals and spicy seafood.
Enjoyed now or over the next few years.
