The Navigator Merlot Cabernet 2019
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot
Description
Softly concentrated with deep and dense aromas of plush red plum, berry fruits, hints of blackcurrant, cocoa, spice and cedar. Each variety contributes to an exquisitely varied array of aroma and great depth of flavour, the palate is medium-full bodied. Merlot plays the lead role at 39% of The Navigator blend, giving body, richness, and a plump roundness to the mid palate. A warm vintage has allowed greater use of Cabernet Sauvignon giving structure, length and longevity but also adding to the important freshness of the blend. Cabernet Franc adds elegance and gentle herbal perfume.
