Description

Cullen's iconic Cabernet Merlot has always a been a prime candidate for ageing. This 1996 is a perfect example.
Strong and rich black berry characters, with a touch of pepper and violets. Great depth of flavour, with the delicious Merlot filling out the middle palate and thus complimenting the clean and classical Cabernet component of the wine. The wine is tied together perfectly by the soft tannins and given structure by the good oak.
Bright, deep colour of excellent hue: youthful. Same on the nose: fresh, clean, bright and adolescent with lots of primary fruit in a black fruit spectrum - blackberry mostly - and quite elegant, without obvious oak or high ripeness, and no sign of greenness. Elegant, medium to full-bodied wine of great precision and style, fine-grained tannins seamlessly interwoven in the fabric of the palate, and a long, harmonious finish.
96 points Huon Hooke.
Meticulously stored and in excellent condition throughout with level into neck.
