Cricket Pitch Red is typically a red wine blend, and the specific grape varieties used may vary from vintage to vintage. This wine is known for its approachable and fruit-forward style. It often features flavors of ripe berries, plums, cherries, and sometimes subtle hints of spice or oak. It is characterized by its medium to full body, moderate tannins, and a well-balanced profile, making it a versatile and enjoyable wine.Tasting Notes
Superb aromas with lifted Cabernet fruit and background vanillin oak. The Shiraz component adds dark fruit, midpalate weight and sweetness along with the ripe tannins, which give great length and persistence to the finish. Cabernet is not ‘dense’ in terms of colour but this wine has a lovely purple hue, simply one of the best Cricket Pitch reds and a lovely drinking wine as always.Product Details
