The 2023 West Cape Howe Cape to Cape Cabernet Merlot is a classic Western Australian red blend, combining Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from cool-climate vineyards in the Great Southern region. It reflects a fruit-driven, approachable style with balance and structure. The nose is expressive, showing blackberry, blackcurrant and plum, layered with hints of spice, herbs and subtle smoky oak.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a smooth, rounded texture and soft, chewy tannins. Juicy dark fruit and gentle spice lead to a dry, flavoursome and easy-drinking finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great value, crowd-pleasing Cabernet Merlot—ideal for customers looking for a smooth, fruit-forward red with everyday appeal. Drink now or over the next few years. Perfect with grilled meats, pasta or casual dining.
