Pauletts Cabernet Merlot 2005
Cooked and stressed fruit has resulted in a minty, greenish, raisined and currant-like red with some juicy and forward dark berry and plum-like fruit backed by restrained cedar/vanilla oak, but which breaks up towards a slightly metallic and edgy finish with herbal undertones.

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.
