This Cabernet Merlot packs a punch! Bright and charming, the perfume of Cabernet Sauvignon strikes you first, followed swiftly by its precise and structured palate. With its partner in crime Merlot providing the palate weight, with fruit generosity and richness.
Blend: 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot.
Tasting Notes
Colour: Dark red hues.
Aroma: Satsuma plums, red cherries and raspberry lift out of the glass. Backed by delicate hints of dark olives, tobacco and savoury characteristics.
Palate: Soft and supple and full of flavour. Black olive, blackcurrant, raspberry and cherry fruits are accompanied by silky, soft tannins that coat the palate. The refreshing acidity balances the supple tannin and red fruits for an extremely smash-able wine that leaves you wanting more.
Food Paring: A platter of freshly shaved meats of your choice.
Alc: 14.2%
