I Am George, Cabernet, Merlot, Limestone Coast, 2015
Cooling nose of cabernet mint slides into rich tomato sugo, cassis and choc/nut oak and little meaty, sheepy lanolin. Black olive gives this a savoury edge with flannel sheets of tannin. The refreshing mint keeps it light at the back palate as the blackcurrant juice drips through. Mass produced but ticks the right boxes.
