Handpicked Wines Collection Series Cabernet Merlot 2016

· by · in Wine Reviews. ·

Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot make for great blending partners. This release from Handpicked Wines sees 65% Cabernet and  35% Merlot.

Handpicked Wines, Collection Series, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Margaret River, 2016

This blend offers choc-mint, damp tobacco, blackberry, mulberry, plum, malt, Turkish coffee and pencilly oak. Subtle, supple yet with undeniable richness and depth.  Some complexity and the merest hint of development with truffle earthiness. Fine nebulous tannin structure will support for many more years. A very good wine indeed.

RRP: $69.99
Alc: 13.9%
Rating: 18.75/20 (94/100)
