Brand's Laira August Tide Dry Red 2010


Berry nice! And when I say berry, that is exactly what dominates here.

A blend headlined by Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot in the mix.

Initial notes of fig and burnt caramel then mixed berry fruit aromas swing into action. Blueberry one whiff, raspberry the next. Suddenly boysenberry chimes in with cedery oak loitering in the background.

And if that's not enough, mulberry and plummy flavours bob up on a flavoursome palate. Grippy and softish tannins with a drying finish wrap it up.

Available at the Cellar Door and in some restaurants nationally.

Guzzle this with a big piece of protein and mash.
