The Galvo Garage Cabernet Blend is a fantastically intense Cabernet Sauvignon, fleshed out by smaller proportions of Cabernet Franc and Merlot to produce a balanced whole. As with pretty much all of d'Arenberg's reds, it does not shy away from tannic structure, so we always think, "this is impressive, bet it could age superbly". Well, this Cellar Release has confirmed our suspicions. At eleven years of age, it is positively singing. Those tannins have melted into a sublimely luxurious velvet texture, while it has no shortage of gloriously intense, blackcurrant, plum, liquorice and cedar character. Bordeaux of this quality would set you back two or three times as much.

Winemaking
Small batches of grapes are gently crushed and then transferred to open fermenters. Foot treading is undertaken two thirds of the way through fermentation, the wine is basket pressed and transferred to a mixture of new and old French oak to complete fermentation. The barrel ferments are aged on lees, there is no racking until final blending and no fining or filtration.
