Holm Oak Cabernet Merlot

Winemaking Notes: The Cabernet and Merlot for this wine were picked at optimal ripeness to ensure a fruit driven style of wine. The fruit was fermented in small batches which were hand plunged to ensure gentle extraction of fruit flavours and tannins. The wine was pressed immediately upon the completion of alcoholic fermentation to ensure that the fleshy fruit characters of the wine were preserved. Following fermentation and pressing this wine was matured in tank with a small oak addition to ensure the preservation of the fruit characters.


Tasting Notes: This wine is a delicious juicy, fruit driven style of wine. With only a small oak addition, the true grape flavours are revealed. Blackberry and raspberry flavours dominate this wine, whilst the palate is fleshy and smooth.
