The wines Bob and Rita Richter produce at Grey Sands in the Tamar Valley are
usually designed for the long haul. This is a deviation from that policy – a blend of merlot,
malbec and cabernet franc aiming at being approachable (with less tannins) when
young. Evidence that Bordeaux varieties
can succeed in the warmer vineyards of Tasmania; this is restrained and fragrant,
impeccably poised but extremely slurpable. It's a medium-bodied red, impeccably judged with well-integrated savoury oak, blueberry notes and a gentle mouthfeel. $30. www.greysands.com.au/
