SQM Cabernets / Merlot
The Cellar Range
Limited edition, individually numbered bottles.
Our alluvial gravel vineyard provides the ideal environment for Cabernet Sauvignon to thrive. The SQM range is only produced in years we can fully ripen the fruit to optimum quality. Using only the best french oak delivers a wine that is rich and round with wild blackberry, cassis and mocha flavours.
Dense ripe blueberry and black cherry aromas with violets and savoury highlights of finely crushed dried herbs. Bold and powerful on the palate with layers of black fruits, ground nutmeg and cedar.
Classical, fine and slightly austere, youthful Cabernet tannins give definition, depth and distinction to this great Cabernet blend. A surge of flavours on the finish ensure the memory of the wine remains lingering on the palate. In its youth now through 2035.

"Medium deep colour. Dark chocolate, carob, dark fruit aromas with some vanilla mocha notes. Well concentrated and inky with deep set dark chocolate, blackberry, black olive, cola flavours, chocolaty tannins and mocha oak complexity. Finishes chocolaty/ sinewy with drying tannins but generous fruit volume."
