Paritua's 2014 Red is a vibrant, medium to full-bodied blend of 60% Merlot, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Cabernet Franc. Black cherries, dark chocolate and baking spices line the palate, enveloping it in soft, plush richness without being stewed or Porty. A really fine effort, even if I'd suggest early drinking.
