"A generous cabernet merlot in every respect, fruit, tannins and oak all having their say, especially oak. Structurally the wine is in balance, and it is reasonable to assume that the oak will subside with more time in bottle, the succulent cassis fruit then taking control" James Halliday, tasted Sep 2015
“The colour is an intense crimson. The nose is blooding and complex – showing dark berry fruits backed up with cassis, toast and French oak. The palate is dense and structured, with an array of ripe mulberry and blackcurrant characters. Over 30 minutes the wine opens up, revealing more red berry fruit characters on the nose and palate.
A very structured wine, we believe our 2014 Cabernet Merlot will benefit from extended aging, and will be best enjoyed if cellared until at least 2019." Woodlands
