"The Cabernet Merlot is undoubtedly the top wine. I’d put it alongside Cullen, Moss wood and Cape Mentelle in the top rank of Margaret River Cabernets – and they are all much dearer. It’s very concentrated but also elegant and beautifully structured; mint and crushed leaf aromas casting it as a distinctive cabernet-based wine, while blackberry and blackcurrant aromas are the main event. Its very long palate, fleshy extract and ample ripe tannins mark it as a wine for cellaring, although it drinks well now."
