Savoury, brooding, spicy.
The Border Vines is Moon Curser's Meritage or Bordeaux blend - Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Carmenere, Malbec & Petit Verdot.
It always has a very savoury character and this 2015 is no exception. It poses aromas of sage and sweet plums, bittersweet chocolate and red currents, tobacco, bacon fat, and mixed spices. The palate mirrors the nose; muddles chocolate, fleur de sel, spice and wild berries lead to a meaty finish.
Decant before serving and pair with grilled meat, hearty lentil stews or aged, hard cheeses.
