Tahbilk

"Outstanding retention of crimson hue, bright and clear on the rim; the bouquet sets the scene for the intense and pure black and red berry fruits of the medium-bodied palate, its exceptional length drawn out by fine-grained tannins, oak an incidental extra." James Halliday | www.winecompanion.com.au (July 2013)

Six bottles of Tahbilk's finest - all gift boxed and ready to give to a lucky recipient ... even if that recipient is you!

A richly flavoured backbone of dark cherry and red berry fruits mesh seamlessly with dried herb, savoury and truffle flavours. Time spent in both new and older French oak adds texture, spice and cedar notes. The tannins are fine grained, the finish prodigiously long.

Fragrant nose of bright red berries mingles with spice, tea leaf and truffle aromas with a velvety palate of dark cherry and plum fruits alongside warm earth and black olive characters. Further complexity to be realised if cellared.

I can assure you I won’t be drinking all of these over the course of Christmas Lunch but my final selections to enjoy on the day will come from this list

Cheeky Rosé with the dial set at dry and savoury, robust and earthy Shiraz, urbane and stylish Cabernet Sauvingon and 'Franc, ripe and plummy Merlot ... let's not forget Reds this summer!
