Rymill Coonawarra

Tasting Note

The mc² is a fantastic blend that goes so incredibly well with any food, and the 2009 vintage is no exception.

Creamy Mushroom RisottoThe Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure to the wine, allowing all the flavours to fall into alignment. They are able to linger on the palate and build a foundation for the dynamic flavour profile.

The Merlot gives softness and fruitiness reminiscent of fresh berries, as well as displaying a juiciness and fleshiness with bursts of ripe red fruit and fresh strawberry jam. Finally, the Cabernet Franc contributes a delicate spiciness of cloves and thyme, continuing with hints of peppermint and cedar box undertones.

The complexity and fusion of these three classic varieties makes this wine the perfect partner for casual or fine dining.

What we love to eat when enjoying this great wine

Creamy mushroom risotto or braised chicken thigh, and for dessert poached pear, in mc² of course, with shaved Regiano Parmagana.
