2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Blend

Dark, deep ruby-red colour with black hues and purple tints on the rim.  The nose is firm and well-concentrated with aromas of Christmas Pudding with bay leaf and clove, blackcurrants, parma violets with savoury dark herbs and savory notes.  Medium-full bodied and elegantly presented, the palate has a finely concentrated core of ripe blackcurrant along with dark herbs and a smokey savory notes.  The fruit is fresh and vibrant and supported by moderate, fine-grained tannin extraction and fresh acidity.  The palate flows with good energy and linearity, leading to an elegant finish of blackcurrants, plums and herbs.  This is a finely presented Cabernet and Merlot blend with plum, blackberry and blackcurrant fruit, freshness and elegant extraction.  Match with lamb and beef dishes over the next 5-6 years.  A blend of approx. 70% each of Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot,
