Freycinet Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2019 burgundy buttery palate

buttery palate

all but la Rad figure

lovely roundness and weight and a long chalky delicate line that is trademark of this single vineyard wine

The nose is an inviting bouquet of fresh peach

the Stevens Valley—arguably Margaret River’s finest Chardonnay zone

Freycinet Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2019 burgundy buttery palateDeep ruby with a hint of purple, heady aromas of cigar box, cassis and liquorice fill the glass. The supple and harmonious palate melds juicy plums, ripe berries and black currant with liquorice, spice, herbs and black olives which are further complemented by attractively integrated savoury oak. Extended maturation in French oak barriques has created fine, silty tannins and a long finish, promising to reward with careful cellaring up to 20 years.
