Penley Estate Gryphon Cabernet Merlot Cabernet Franc 2017 Coonawarra - 6 Bottles

WINERY INFORMATION Penley Estate is a family owned winery located on McLeans Road in Coonawarra, South Australia. The winery was established in the year 1995 by Ang, Bec and Kym Tolley. It is currently managed by skilled winemaker Matt Tilby, who started his winemaking career in 2000 at Penley Estate. Matt firmly believes that the use of small parcel winemaking techniques allows the unique fruit characteristics to shine through in every vintage produced.

This stunning Gryphon Classic Red Blend was crafted by the fusion of 37% Cab Franc and 23% Merlot with 40% Cab Sauv grapes. The perfumed nose exhibits dark fruit aromas, with asphalt and liquorice hints evident in the backdrop. The palate is medium bodied and generous, brimming with blackcurrant, spearmint and spice flavours. Elegant and textured tannins integrate with the palate to pave the way for a captivating finish, marked by spearmint, blackcurrant, and spicy vanilla cedar characters. This wonderful red blend from Penley Estate tastes amazing with roast chicken, braised lamb shanks, and pepperoni pizza.
