Saga
Saga, Bordeaux red
Designed as everyday wines, Saga Bordeaux Red is made from traditional Bordeaux grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The proportions of each vary with each vintage but, nature permitting, Cabernet Sauvignon is almost always the predominant grape variety, bringing finesse and structure. Vinification and ageing that are adapted to suit the weight and structure of the wines result in charm and suppleness and preserve complexity. The result? A modern classic Bordeaux red with characteristic DBR (Lafite) house-style.
