1998 Voyager Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot

A very impressive sophisticated Cabernet. Very deep crimson colour, with deep crimson hue. Superb, lifted nose almost ‘perfumed’ with distinct blackcurrant spice, liquorice, violets and cigar box notes over a layer of cedar and just a hint of leaf. The palate is refined, relatively tightly knit, with very long concentrated flavours of blackcurrant, cedar and liquorice with a distinct cigar box, leaf and blackpepper back palate. Very fine dryish but perfectly balanced tannins, followed by very long blackcurrant cigar box aftertaste.
Cellar 3-4 years (2005-2006).
