Product Notes

Divinely rooted in Australia's Yarra Valley, the De Bortoli Melba Amphora Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable exploration of flavour. This robust wine boasts a rich red hue, entwining heady forest fruits and spice for a tantalising aroma. On the palate, it reveals elegant notes of blackcurrant and plum underlined by soft tannins and a hint of mint. Enhanced by oak-fermentation in traditional amphoras, its complex, velvety finish leaves one yearning for another sip. Its hearty character pairs splendidly with hearty meals, making it an ideal accompaniment at your dining table. Truly, a delightful representation of Australian viticulture.

Tasting Notes

Bright, medium red with bright edges. Haunting, ethereal, scented autumnal aromas. Mouth filling flavours, quite supple, arised tannins, gentle, earthern and complex.
