Under the capsule, the 2011 vintage of Blind Trust reveals its secrets - it's a blend of Merlot (47%), Cabernet Sauvignon (12%), Malbec (31%), Cabernet Franc (6%) and Syrah (4%).
It's a succulent wine, which stars smoked meat, roasted plums, dried herbs and brown spice, grilled peppers and coffee atop intense purple and black fruits. The palate shows restraint; flavours of small dark berries and tobacco, dusty plums and peppers culminate in a persistent finish. Very good balance and freshness.
