Church Road TOM Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2018

A core of fragrant cassis and dark berry fruit, cherry and plum is lifted by top notes of rosewood and cedar with cooler hints thyme, lavender and cardamom. A savoury dark earthy complexity brings a more serious, brooding undertone to the wine. On the palate the wine is medium/full bodied with good mid palate flesh, finishing with a long, fine, supple tannin structure. This is a dense yet elegant wine with great depth which will reward long term cellaring until 2028 – 2043.
