  Miles from Nowhere Cabernet Merlot 2014
 
 
Miles From Nowhere Cab Merlot.gif
 
The fruit for this wine comes from Northern Margaret River around the Carbunup, Treeton and Wilyabrup sub-regions.

Using a yeast strain isolated from France which enhances flavour, aroma and complexity, a variety of techniques were employed to achieve ideal colour and flavour extraction. Batches of Cabernet were allowed to go through short period of extended maceration, to soften fruit tannins. Fermented in stainless steel with a percentage in small French oak. This wine has good fruit intensity of blackcurrant Cabernet character with hints of sweet mint, combined with the juicy dark plum character from the Merlot, with balanced acidity and attractive tannin structure, giving palate length and will allow graceful ageing.


Awards and Accolades

2013 Vintage

93 Points - Campbell Mattinson, Australian Wine Companion
"Mounts a charm offensive. Mid-weight flavours of blackcurrant, chocolate, gravel and garden mint come across as fresh and juicy and, more to the point, perfectly proportioned."
