Variety: Merlot/Cabernet Franc/Cabernet Sauvignon/Petit Verdot/Malbec
Tasting notes;
This red is predominantly a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, with smaller amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot adding further complexity and interest. Cherry/plum flavours and the suppleness of Merlot combine with the violet perfume and blackberry flavours of Cabernet Franc to produce a serious, yet eminently drinkable wine packed full of flavour and character.

90 points, (Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review)
“A blend of merlot, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot from a very favourable vintage. Ripe berry, plum, red rose, floral and a hint of fresh herbs. A lively wine that offers good drinking now but no rush. Good value at this price ($25)”
4 Stars (Michael Cooper)
“Deeply coloured, it is fragrant, mouthfilling and supple, with strong blackcurrant, plum and spice flavours”
