This Gimblett Gravels Cabernet Merlot has a deep vibrant colour with classic berry fruit aromas. There are hints of cassis, tobacco and plum on the nose. The palate has a big structure with overt fruit and fine ripe tannins. The wine in the mouth has impressive mid palate weight with the oak enhancing the fruit without being overpowering. There are layers of complexity and a good grip that lead to a fine lingering finish.

The wine’s structure and intensity will ensure good cellaring through to 2013+.
