Cabernet / Merlot

France’s Bordeaux wine region has given us both Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the time-honoured, leading varietals that are combined to give us a blend of expressive fruity roundness and dark red colour known as Cabernet Merlot. New Zealand winemakers have been plying their craft to this blend for 150 years, achieving a highly approachable combination of power and elegance by harnessing Merlot’s ripe fullness and Cabernet Sauvignon’s intricacies of structure.

Thank you Vino Fino Team, Thank you so much for your help with the drinks for our wedding day! We couldn’t have been happier with the service from Vino Fino supplying us with a Chiller Trailer to use on the day! You made getting the wine for our wedding easy and fun. It was low stress, and we truly appreciated being able to bring back the unopened wine. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to our friends and family. We’re so grateful!
