This stunning Margaret River Cabernet Merlot has already won three Gold medals and with the potential for another five years ageing, it’s bound to continue its winning record! Make sure you secure a few bottles before it disappears.
Deep Woods Estate is perched high on a ridge in the heart of Margaret River, which unfolds into a secluded valley bound by stands of jarrah and marri trees; hence the name. This is a classic regional blend comprising 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 16% Merlot, with a dash of Cabernet Franc added for complexity. It was matured in French oak for 16 months prior to blending.
Sweet berry and cassis aromas over cedary spice and mint introduce a ripe, juicy, regional palate with plush layers of plum and blackcurrant fruit along with notes of licorice and crushed leaf. It has a juicy texture, fine tannins, savoury acidity and good length.
