Description
De Bortoli's Sacred Hill Cab Merlot is a harmonious blend that encapsulates the spirit and tradition of Australian viticulture. De Bortoli, a family-owned winery with Italian roots, has consistently showcased an adept ability to craft wines that both echo the characteristics of the land and pay homage to old-world winemaking techniques. The Sacred Hill Cab Merlot is no exception.
In the glass, the wine unfurls with a vibrant ruby red hue, promising depth and character. The nose is immediately greeted by an aromatic bouquet, where the Cabernet Sauvignon imparts classic notes of blackcurrant, cherry, and plum, while the Merlot adds softer touches of ripe berries and a hint of violet. Delicate whispers of oak, mocha, and a hint of green bell pepper add layers to the olfactory experience.
Tasting the Sacred Hill Cab Merlot is an exploration of harmony. The Cabernet lends its bold, structured character, presenting flavors of dark fruits, a hint of mint, and the subtle tannic grip that the varietal is renowned for. The Merlot, in contrast, provides a plush, velvety counterpoint, smoothing out the edges with its fruity softness and adding nuances of chocolate and plum. The wine's finish is persistent, with a delightful interplay between the bright fruit notes and subtle undertones of spice and oak.
This blend, with its balanced profile, pairs exceptionally well with a myriad of dishes. Consider serving it alongside grilled lamb chops with rosemary, roasted vegetable medleys, or even a hearty beef stew. The wine's adaptability also makes it a fine choice for casual sipping or gatherings.
The label of De Bortoli's Sacred Hill Cab Merlot exudes a rustic charm, capturing the essence of the vineyard's serene landscapes and the winery's commitment to honoring the sacred art of winemaking. The image evokes feelings of tradition, nature, and reverence for the land.
All in all, De Bortoli's Sacred Hill Cab Merlot is a heartfelt ode to Australian terroir and the timeless allure of a well-crafted blend. It's a wine that tells a story of heritage, passion, and the age-old dance between two beloved varietals.
