The Lane LDR 2022

A blend of Syrah (aka Shiraz), Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. A nicely presented blend with ripeness of fruit and an even-handed winemaking approach. Brings the strengths of each red grape variety to play: Shiraz sweet red fruit, touch of Cabernet blackberry and cassis with a light leafiness, and Merlot’s soft spice and gentle aromatics. Nicely measured tannins focus on fleshy, red fruits and spice across the palate. Once again, we see a youthful energy and brightness – a smart, well-balanced wine.
