2008 CLEANSKIN Cabernet Merlot
New Release - Unlabelled Premium wines
2008 saw the climatic conditions in Margaret River return to form with warm summer days and cool nights. The Jarvis vineyard was spared from the hail storm that hit Margaret River in November 2007 and with no hail damage the vines were ready to produce one of the best crops for years.
The nose shows unmistakable plum notes from the Merlot influence. The Cabernet has added savoury notes and the regional leafy character of Margaret River shines through. Time spent on oak has added subtle vanilla tones.
This is a mouth-filling full-bodied wine packed with dark berry flavours and spicy, earthy characters. Still quite young and cellaring for several years will only make this a more outstanding wine as the years roll on.
