A timeless blend that is classic Margaret River. Aromas of blackberry, chocolate, bay leaf and cedar, with a full-bodied palate of rich dark fruits \u0026amp; loads of fine tannin.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWINEMAKING\u003c\/span\u003e: The fruit was picked in cool, dry conditions in late March-early April and vinified in open and closed static fermenters with hand plunging and pumping over. The wine was matured for 18 months in a mix of old and new French barriques from a selection of the best Bordeaux coopers. The varieties were vinified separately and blended before bottling; this wine is 65% Cabernet and 35% Merlot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e FEATURES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrigin: Australia\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSize: 750ml\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eABV: 13.9%\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStandard Drinks: 8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whisky Wine Sake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39669585641571,"sku":"","price":61.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/2288\/3939\/products\/HandpickedCollectionCabernetMerlot.png?v=1638170338","url":"https:\/\/www.whiskywinesake.com.au\/products\/handpicked-collection-cabernet-merlot","provider":"Whisky Wine Sake","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
