Product Notes

Fraser Gallop Cabernet Merlot is an exquisite Australian blend redolent with ripe, dark fruit tones and a persuasive undercurrent of richly spiced oak. Savour the elegant interplay of blackcurrant, mulberry, and plum flavours carried on silky tannins. This medium to full-bodied wine offers an eloquent balance of acidity and sweetness, graced with subtle hints of chocolate and vanilla. Maturation in French oak barrels brings a sophisticated complexity, resulting in a perfectly harmonious finish that lingers tantalisingly on the taste buds. This Cabernet Merlot is indeed a spectacular testament to the winemaking expertise of Fraser Gallop. It is an essential selection for a wine connoisseur's cellar.

Tasting Notes

A medium to full bodied and crimson red wine with vibrant ruby hues. Dusty mulberry,red berries, dried bay leaf, currants, sweet cedar nose, new cigar box aroma and some hints of dried herbs. Ripe fresh berry fruits, fleshy tannins but soft and supple. The style of Cabernet Merlot we are making at Fraser Gallop Estate is a wine that has greater freshness from a short time on skins and short barrel maturation and good concentration of flavour that comes naturally from dry grown Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend.
