The Tamblyn blend utilises the characteristics of the different varietals to give a wine that is full flavoured & balanced. Cabernet Sauvignon provides the complementary tannin structure, Shiraz & Merlot give berry roundness, & Malbec adds a perfumed lift & intense colour. 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Shiraz, 7.5% Malbec, 6.5% Merlot The components for Tamblyn were individually fermented in open top fermenters which allowed for optimal extraction of colour & flavour. The wine was matured in a combination of new & old French & American barrels for 18months before blending & bottling.
