Description
The Catherine Marshall 2022 Amatra ‘Oreads’ is a red blend showing Generous, opulent core of ripe black plums from the Merlot component with underlying savoury, lead pencil shavings from Cabernet Franc fruit. Tannins are dry and suedey on the finish. This vintage consist of 67% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Franc
Ageing potential: In its youth, generous; mouth-filling; plummy fruit is well balanced with a seam of lead pencil shaving tannins from the Cabernet Franc fraction and over time will evolve to stewed prunes, blonde tobacco, and hazelnuts with integrated, mellowed tannins on the finish. Wine should mature for 8 to 10 years under optimal cellar conditions.
