High Country 2018 Cabernet Merlot - Gapsted Wines

$20.00

"Strong notes of eucalyptus on the nose and more tannin than you might expect but otherwise this is a good, sound, solid wine with blackberried fruit flavour running throughout. It’s medium-bodied, dry and meant for drinking now, but it could even surprise over the next five or so years." Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front
