Polish River Cabernet Merlot by Paulett Wines

Polish River Cabernet Merlot by Paulett Wines

This Cabernet dominated Bordeaux blend shows the depth and intensity gained from a cool micro-climate. A fruit-driven wine which is rich and spicy with truffle and vanilla on the nose. The palate is beautifully balanced and packed with sweet cherry, plum, blackcurrant and liquorice. Subtle oak ageing adds to this superbly structured wine with supple tannins and a long, intense and satisfying finish.

Tasting Notes
Aroma – Blackcurrant, dark plum and herbaceous notes, combine with dusty oak, cigar box and sweet spice. Palate – Rich blackcurrant and dark fruit flavours, showing slight herbaceous characters. Fine tannins with integrated French oak textural mouthfeel.
Food Pairing Notes
Mature cheeses, Coq au Vin and Mediterranean dishes.

Clare Valley is one of Australia`s oldest wine regions and is probably best known for its Riesling wines. Polish Hill River is a sub-region one and a half hours drive north from Adelaide. Named after the Polish settlers of the mid
1800s, the climate is ideal for premium grape growing with a combination of consistently good winter rains, hot summers tempered by cool nights and a long ripening period.

The name Polish River comes from the Polish settlers who came to the area in the early 1850s escaping religious persecution. Pauletts reputation for producing wines of finesse, elegance and intensity is justly deserved with
consistent skill and care from vintage to vintage. Neil Paulett graduated from the Roseworthy oenology course in the early 1970s and spent a further ten years honing his winemaking skills at Penfolds before buying his own property in the Clare Valley. Located some 90 minutes north of Adelaide,this lovely property now extends to 150 hectares with 47 planted with vines. Since the first vintage in 1983 there have been many accolades both at home and internationally.
These wines are a true reflection of the region and are of outstanding quality
