Why Do We Love This?

Taking inspiration from the great wines of Bordeaux this blend is primarily Made Of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with splashes of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The palate reveals juicy, dark fruit sweetness, fine tannins and generous length. The cabernet merlot blend takes inspiration from the classic red wines of Bordeaus. Cape Mentelle has developed an international reputation for outstanding Bordeaux varietal and blended wines which are perfectly suited to the climate and soils of Margaret River. This blend seeks to capture the depth and structure of cabernet with the dark fruit and plush flavours of merlot which when blended with small amounts of petit verdot and cabernet france, sometimes a touch of shiraz, create a well rounded, full and rich style.
