Description The Dragonfly Cabernet Merlot is an expression of the deep dark fruit characters attained from the Ferguson Valley wine region, rich and smooth with lashings of chocolate. The vineyard is 25km from the coast as the crow flies, and receives the cooling afternoon sea breeze during summer. At an elevation between 230 and 280 meters, the estate is generally two degrees or more cooler than the coastal plain, with ripening times similar to the cool southern parts of the neighbouring Margaret River wine region. Blackcurrant, blackberry and mulberry aromas lift from the glass, with a touch of milk chocolate, tomato leaf and spice. Palate is packed with fruit (blackberry, boysenberry and blackcurrant) with crisp, juicy acidity and hints of anise and bay leaf.
