Balnaves of Coonawarra The Blend 2019

49% Cabernet Sauvignon and 38% Merlot, with 7.5% Cabernet Franc and 5.5% Petit Verdot to add perfume. Established in 1975, the Balnaves Coonawarra Vineyard occupies the southern end of the Coonawarra Terra Rossa strip, with a family legacy dating back to 1855, ensuring hands-on involvement. The wine boasts a deep red hue with a rich aroma of liquorice, black fruits, cranberries, and vanilla. Fuller-bodied with soft tannins and lingering dark fruit characters, the 2019 vintage shines, representing one of the finest blends crafted by the estate.
