Pauletts Cabernet Merlot 2001
Honest medium-term cabernet blend whose violet-like aromas of slightly stewed small red and black berries also reveal some meatiness and herbal undertones. Medium in weight, the palate presents some intense berry fruit flavour augmented by slightly varnishy, cedar/vanilla oak, finishing with herbal edges and firm, fine tannins.

Winery
Pauletts
A small maker of a typically regional selection of Clare Valley table wines, Pauletts is reinventing itself from a quality perspective. Its trio of finely crafted, elegant rieslings represent the real strength of the brand, while the rich and deeply flavoured Andreas Shiraz is typically firm and cellarworthy. The reserve level Antonina Riesling has now hit a very high level of quality for two consecutive seasons, elevating Pauletts into the region's elite with this signature white variety.
