Craighall Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot 1998

Craighall Cabernet/Merlot is based on a classic Bordeaux blend of relatively robust Cabernet smoothed out with soft Merlot. The intense nutty and blackcurrant flavours of Cabernet Sauvignon are enhanced by the noble partner, Merlot, adding velvety smoothness to the blend. Serve with mutton, pork and pasta.

in the cellar : Craighall wines were launched in 1992 initially with a Chardonnay/Sauvignon Blanc blend. The brand achieved remarkable success by becoming the third largest selling HP wine in the country within two years. The strong acceptance for the white variety called for the introduction of a similar quality red wine and Craighall Cabernet/Merlot, a classic Bordeaux blend was launched. Now Craighall has launched fresh, lively Sauvignon Blanc to extend the range. Craighall is a perfectly balanced, full bodied quality wine.
