Grace
Grace Akeno
Deep, bright cherry-red colour. Blackcurrant and black cherry, with hints of green bell pepper, black pepper, mint and subtle oak-derived spice. Elegant and structured, with concentrated dark-fruit flavours, fine acidity and firm but refined tannins. The Cabernet Sauvignon brings structure, while Merlot contributes fruit and approachability. Long, discreetly spicy and savoury, with lingering blackcurrant and herbal notes
