2017 | Mullineux & Leeu Family | Leeu Passant Red

Leeu Passant’s Dry Red was inspired by the classic Cape wines of the past and is a blend of predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc and Cinsault. Medium- to full-bodied with delicious notes of red berry fruits, black pepper, tobacco and wild herbs. Ideally served with food, this would go perfectly alongside a juicy rib-eye steak.
