2001, Delatite Winery, Victoria Dungeon Gully

Delatile's cool climate and rocky ironstone soil consistently produce wines of exceptional flavor and elegance.  A blend of Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet and Shiraz harvested in late April and the first week of May, this wine is made in a round soft style; the Malbec and shiraz lend cherry, plum and spice, tones to warm red berry characters of the merlot, while the cabernet provides strenght.  These full flavors are balanced with soft tannins and oak characters from American and French oak maturation.  Grown at Delatite Vineyard 55% and Mansfield area 45%. Drink as a young wine or cellar for up to 5 years.
