Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot

Cabernet Sauvignon is often blended with other varieties, the most popular being the Bordeaux blend. Merlot is the most common partner as it adds mid-palate and softness. The traditional Bordeaux blend is made up in varying proportions of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.

In Australia the classic Cabernet Sauvignon blend is actually with Shiraz, even Penfolds Grange has a little Cabernet. The fruitiness of Shiraz marries well with the structure and acid of Cabernet.

CHATEAU PONTET CANET 2001, 750ml (Bottle)

  • For the last 10 years, Pontet Canet has been producing superb wine. If one is in search of richness, power, tannin and complexity, this wine has it all. What it might lack is some finesse. Its a Pauillac on the grandest scale. It demands patience, and then rewards it. Stephen Brook
  • Enticing blackberry and liquorice character, with a tiny bit of tobacco.
  • Revealing classic cassis aromas, medium to full body, a firm structure with plenty of finesse, a closed personality, and dominant as well as intrusive tannin, it should age well for 12-20 years, but patience will be required.
