Tasting notes
A blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, 17% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot and Malbec, the 2014 Calluna Estate offers a deep ruby/purple color to go with a brilliant bouquet of blueberries, plums, Asian spice, and cedar. It also picks up classic tobacco and cigar notes with time in the glass. It’s medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, and balanced, with fine tannin. Give bottles a few years and it should keep for 15+ years.

49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, 8% Petit Verdot, 2% Malbec. More traction and frame here than on the CVC; more dark spice and toast flavours. More use of oak here as well but it defines the style in a way that integrates with the fruit. Plenty of natural acidity and firm structure keep the wine both ageable and mouth-watering. Alongside food, this wine would prove quite versatile. (ECB)
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Calluna Estate gives expressive plum and black berry notes with spice box and incense nuances and an herbal background. Firm, taut and elegant with plenty of expression, the medium-bodied palate is finely constructed with great intensity and length.
