Vashon Estate 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot review - WineUncorked: Wine Reviews and Tips

virgin

Still as good as the previous vintage from 2020 with its soft and fruity flavours of damson, blackberry and floral violets. There’s a slight black treacle bitterness to make this a grown-up taste among all that gluggable enjoyment. The old-fashioned label, showing a crest on a black background, hides what is a modern Australian wine.
