2017 Cabernet Merlot

A good intensity of cherry and blackcurrant fruits finished with fine tannins in this classic blend.

This is a classic and popular blend. The warm growing conditions combined with the gentle maceration of skins during alcoholic fermentation, gives this wine a profile featuring red berry fruit flavours of cassis and currants, finely balanced with delicate spice and toasty oak.

Region: Geographe, Western Australia

Varieties: Cabernet 81%, Merlot 11%, Shiraz 6%, Grenache 2%

Nose: Trademark blackcurrant and cherry aroma enhanced with spices

Palate: Dry light to medium intensity of juicy red currants and toasted spice flavours extend out to the finish.
