Peter Lehmann Clancy's Shiraz Cabernet Merlot is a great example of each variety contributing to the blend. Spice and plummy fruits combined with cassis and mint, rounded with the firm tannins. A perfectly balanced red.

Big rich and plummy with spicy and vanillin elements on the nose. Palate has lovely raspberry, with plum and spice all held together by a gentle tannin backbone.

A well balanced blend of Shiraz Cabernet and Merlot, this Margaret River red shows sweet ripe fruit with flavours of cherry and plum. Soft and round on the palate it is a satisfying 'drink now' style.

Ben Riggs has hand-crafted a delicious Shiraz Cabernet Merlot blend here that pays homage to the three-spiked prickle that can be found in the McLaren Vale region and the fact that it's hard to ignore. This unctuous red blend is also extremely hard to ignore with its seamless varietal integration that produces a wine full of richness and opulence. Ripe, dark berry fruits courtesy of Merlot along with spice elements from the Shiraz and a firm, but balanced structure from the Cabernet all come together superbly.

De Bortoli La Bossa Shiraz Cab Merlot is a generous, deep crimson coloured wine. The fruit was fermented on its skin for a period of 5 to 7 days at 20 to 22°C, which maximised the colour and tannin extraction. Red cherries, red berries, dark plums, and a subtle backdrop of spices glorifies the bouquet of this wine. The palate is lush and juicy with pleasing flavours of sweet plum, and hints of soft spice and vanilla. The wine has an impressive structure with mellow tannins, followed by a smooth and pillowy finish. This Shiraz Cab Merlot blend is a great match for red meats, T-bone steaks, stews, and lamb shanks. This great wine gains complexity with careful cellaring.
