Sevenhill St Ignatius Cabernet Blend

Notes from the producer

This wine opens with inviting aromas of violets, dark berries, and subtle notes of dried herbs and cedar. On the palate, it presents a fine balance of red and black fruit, such as blackcurrant, plum, and raspberry, supported by earthy undertones and a hint of tobacco. The texture is smooth and medium-bodied, with finely integrated tannins and well-judged oak that adds spice and structure without overpowering the fruit. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a lingering impression of freshness and finesse.

The St Ignatius Cabernet Blend is a versatile and elegant wine that pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Its refined structure and complex flavour profile make it an ideal match for:

• Roast lamb with rosemary and garlic

• Chargrilled ribeye steak or slow-cooked beef ribs

• Roast duck or game meats such as venison

• Aged hard cheeses including cheddar, gouda, and Manchego

• Mushroom risotto or herb-laced lentil stew for a hearty vegetarian option

• Rich pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces or traditional ragu

This wine’s balance of fruit, spice, and tannin complements both classic meat-based meals and robust plant-based dishes.
