Cabernet Sauvignon is powerfully flavoured, blackcurranty and full-bodied. When you do add Merlot it makes a perfect partner with its fruit flavours and velvety softness.

This is a tale of two wines that proved to be a match made in heaven.  The Margaret River (Amadeus vineyard) Cabernet component was picked at optimum ripeness and hand sorted to remove any lesser berries.  The Mudgee Merlot was from a single vineyard (Wooloomooloo), harvested at optimal flavour, seed and tannin ripeness and showing Merlot’s trademark ripe tobacco leaf character.  The wines were fermentedin small tanks, with 10-12 days maceration, and then pressed off skins into French oak where they underwent the secondary malolactic fermentation.  They then matured for 16 months in a combination of new through to four year old French oak, at the Mudgee winery, after which they were blended ready for bottling.
This radical blend of grapes from opposite sides of the country actually makes quitea lot of sense.  Mudgee has a long history of making richly flavoured, age-worthy Cabernets that if anything can be a little too earthy, so we went to Margaret River –producer of some of the country’s finest Cabernets and blended an exceptional single vineyard parcel of  Merlot grapes from Mudgee to make this fascinating dual region –dual varietal wine that emulates a fine young claret.
