Serengale Merlot Cabernet 2019
Wines taste best when shared with friends!
Gayle Taylor and Serena Abbinga founded Serengale Vineyard in 1999 with the goal of producing the best grapes for making into premium wines. Gayle had worked in the wine industry for over 20 years and was partnered by Serena, who was seeking to return to North East Victoria after many years of living and working in inner city Melbourne.
I was fortunate enough to try the entire Serengale range recently and as most impressed. The reds in particular showed a wonderful Bordeaux-like elegance with soft berry fruits, fine grained tannin and amazing settled balance. The 2017 is drinking exceptionally well now but I'd have no problems keeping for another 3 - 5yrs.
"A blend of 60/40% merlot/cabernet sauvignon. Hand-picked, wild yeast fermentation, 18 months maturation in old and new French oak. A striking merlot-dominant wine of great integrity and class. Masterfully showcasing the floral beauty of merlot – violet, rose petal – with the wild herbal interplay of the other – fennel, sage, bay leaf. Plum and black cherry fruits are lifted and concentrated with fine, velvety tannins tying everything together seamlessly. Four years old and there's so much vinous life still to enjoy." 96pts | Jeni Port | Halliday Wine Companion
