Our Tahbilk 2019 Shiraz Cabernet has been described as a favourite warm and comfortable jumper meets a Yves Saint Laurent suit.
Well this 2019 Cabernet Merlot is all Yves Saint Laurent suit!
But wait is that a favourite jumper I see under the jacket?
Indeed, yes! The winemaking team have included a healthy splash of Shiraz (9%) to the urbane blending of 68% Estate Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Merlot adding an earthy, robust undercurrent to the mint, herbs and spice aromas and fleshy, blackcurrant and dark plum fruits palate of this eminently "wearable" release.
Fine, sinewy tannins on the finish work wonderfully with a lamb rack or grilled sirloin and would equally support for a longer term future.
