In the glass: Medium to deep red black. On the nose: Full of bright red cherry with hints of red olive and fine oak spice. On the palate: Quite a jubey and appealing red fruit core giving long and silken flavours that are generous and classy. Fine oak gives subtle support throughout. Lovely now yet with good mid-term potential.

Fruit tannin and bold flavours of mulberries and wet slate. A focused core of fine textures and glazed cherries culminates in a mineral and persistent finish.

Cabernet Merlot is a quentissential Margaret River blend. The grapes for this wine are dry grown on rich Karri loam and gravel soil at the KarriBindi vineyard.Cabernet Sauvignon brings the richness and structure while Merlot contributes beautiful fragrant aromas, complimentary flavours and softness.This wine is deep, dark red in colour with aromas of red currant and plum which lead to a smooth palate of luscious red berry fruits with hints of cassis and coffee bean. It has a succulent tannin structure with fine length complimenting the depth of fruit flavours.

Grape Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon 86%; Merlot 14% Purple with crimson edges looks serious in the glass. Tobacco leaf feint cassis purple plums a complex nose which adds weight to the serious theme. Quality MR Cabernet leads the charge here. A wine with high cheek- bones. Just ripe cabernet gives this sinew and poise. Merlot is subservient almost hard to detect. Terrific wine, at almost twice the price.
