Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec

Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec

Vintage 2022

This Merlot based blend grown in the arid, stony soils of the famed Gimblett Gravels has long been a specialty of ours. With perfectly ripened fruit and custom made concrete fermenters we have produced a smooth and full bodied signature style, bursting with flavours of blackcurrant, dried herbs, plums and blackberry. A beautifully complex wine that can be enjoyed now or will age gracefully for several years.

Tasting Notes
This is a smooth and fruit orientated Gimblett Gravels blend. Deep purple in colour, it has a bouquet of dried herbs, red berries and subtle hints of cedar from a period of barrel maturation. It is soft and generous in nature and can be enjoyed as a youthful wine, but possesses sufficient tannin to age gracefully for many years.

Vineyards and Winemaking
This wine was blended from grapes grown within the renowned Gimblett Gravels Winegrowing District. These deep stony soils have excellent drainage and low vigour, ideal for the production of high-quality red wine. Our vineyard sites are close planted and yields per vine are kept low to maximise quality. The cooler 2022 vintage resulted in a wine with focused and fresh red fruit flavours.

Food Pairing
Red meat and game, rich umami vegetarian dishes including tomato based dishes
