Product Information

D'arenberg Cab/Merl/Fr Galvo 06

$36.00 750 MLS

d’Arenberg ‘Galvo Garage’ Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot/Petit Verdot/Franc 2006 (19.0-/20), at 14.5% alc, 56% CS, 20% Me, 18% PV and 6% CF, with 32% of the fruit from the Adelaide Hills, the wine aged 18 months in mainly 1 and 2 y.o. French barriques. This had an impenetrable purple hued ruby red colour with a very refined, elegant nose of pure blackcurrants lifted with a floral, violetty nuance. A wine with classical proportion, this had beautifully ripened, blackcurranty fruit flavours on fine-grained tannins, the fruit sweetness and freshness a highlight. A superbly detailed, modern Bordeaux look-alike that will keep 8-10 years. RC July 10
