The 2015 Brookland Valley Cabernet Merlot shows a lovely medium bodied elegance.

Classic Margaret River characters of blackcurrant, plum and fruit cake flavours are complemented by hints of milk chocolate and bay leaf. French oak spice and fine powdery tannins give the palate an elegant structure and sustained length.

Pairs well with Braised lamb shanks

97 Gold Halliday Points - James Halliday 2021 - "Estate-grown, hand-picked, open-fermented, matured in French oak for 13 months. A wine of elegance and finesse, reflecting the 'do nothing' philosophy in its crafting. It's only medium-bodied, but the perfume of the bouquet tells you something's up and it's the purity of its cassis fruit that has the Syren call allure on the finish of the long, lingering palate."
