2024 Blackjack Cabernet Merlot
$33.00
Tasting Note:
Fermented in traditional open fermenters, hand plunged and aged in small French oak barriques for 22 months.
In the glass dark red with a crimson hue. Classic varietal nose showing leafy, briary notes along with cassis, plum and vanillin oak. The mid palate a perfect reflection of the bright aromas. Balance is a given and the flavour profile extends long and harmoniously with the well judged tannins providing shape and structure.
Try with rosemary-infused and garlic slow-cooked lamb shoulder.
Suggested cellaring: 4-10 years
