De Bortoli Sacred Hill Cabernet Merlot
Sacred Hill alone is sufficient reason to never gamble on another cleanskin again. When I broadcast word that it was slashed to $3.75 (half price!) at 1st Choice and Dan’s this week I almost incited a stampede. Households all over the country are revelling in a house wine with surprising integrity of balance and varietal character. Lively redcurrants and mulberries, a fragrant violet lift, some dried herb complexity, fine tannins and even a lick of dark chocolate oak. All for less that the price of a Coke at your local servo.
