1996 Bowen Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Cabernet Franc
Wine Rating
92
Red in the glass, browning towards the rim. The nose is developed with more savoury leathery characters than primary fruit evident. The palate has blackberry, cedar and olives, as well as excellent weight on the palate. The wine has a long finishe with ground coffee notes and fine drying tannins.
