The 2021 Hay Shed Hill Vineyard Series Cabernet Merlot is a classic Margaret River red blend that combines the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the softness and approachability of Merlot. Produced from estate-grown fruit in one of Australia’s premier Cabernet regions, this wine reflects Margaret River’s ability to deliver wines with both richness and elegance.
The nose is expressive and inviting, revealing aromas of blackcurrant, dark plum and blackberry alongside notes of cedar, dried herbs and subtle spice. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine tannins, balanced acidity and layers of dark berry fruit. Hints of cocoa, tobacco leaf and savoury oak add complexity, leading to a smooth and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those who enjoy traditional Cabernet Merlot blends with balance and versatility. Available as a convenient 6-bottle pack, it's ideal for stocking the cellar or enjoying with a range of meals. Pair with roast lamb, grilled steak, beef casseroles or aged cheddar. Enjoy now or cellar over the next 5–8 years as additional complexity develops.
