Tasting Notes…

Te Mata Estate Merlot / Cabernet is a blend of 44% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Franc, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 13% Petit Verdot. It is a deep, red garnet colour with warm aromas of spicy cherry, boysenberry and dark plum. Ripe fruit flavours, combined with dark cherry syrup, cedar and chocolate all feature on the elegant palate, with firm, velvety tannins and a touch of liquorice to the long finish

Our Alternative Wines

Verum Seleccion de Familia Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes…

Classic elements of Cabernet Franc on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. This is riper than a typical old world Cabernet Franc and does not show too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The fuller bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.

Price range: £134.00 through £265.50

Karim Mussi Abras Malbec

Tasting Notes…

Fresh plums, violets, blueberry, crushed-stone and mineral aromas on the nose lead to a fresh and brightly fruited, full-bodied palate with firm, silky tannins.

Price range: £131.50 through £260.50

Algodon Pinot Noir

Tasting Notes…

Vanilla, mocha and dark fruits fill the enticing nose.  The palate is rich and offers a fuller style of Pinot but retains elegance.  The palate is smooth with dark cherries, sandalwood and creamy vanilla flavours.

We say…

This is superbly textured Pinot Noir.
