So much character at the price, and quite different from your run-of-the-mill Cabernet. Red fruits and plum, aniseed and exotic spice, a pleasing floral and leafy perfume. It’s supple, medium-bodied, black olive and tobacco in with bramble fruit, gravelly tannin, and a dusty spicy finish of excellent length. Lovely. All class.

Notes
2018 Rocky Gully Cabernets comprises 40% Cabernet Franc, 24% Merlot, 18.5% Malbec, 7.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% each of Petit Verdot and Shiraz.
A cold and wet winter in 2017 delayed budburst. A wet spring and cool dry conditions throughout summer 2018 provided an exceptional year for these varieties. The fruit was harvested in clean and ideal condition.
The nose shows mulberries and chocolate entwined with hints of vanilla and Italian dried herbs. Redcurrants abound with a splash of black olives. The palate has a soft and subtle introduction followed by bursts of blue fruits and ripe balanced tannin. Also, a little hint of tobacco leaf. It’s a wine of lovely length and persistence. This fruit-driven blend of six varieties gives a balance and complexity that allows for immediate appeal. – Hunter Smith, Frankland Estate
