The Galvo Garage, d'Arenberg 25%

The Galvo Garage, d'Arenberg 25%A Cabernet led Bordeaux blend rich in blackcurrant, leather, cedar and spice, with an interesting, savoury tang of tomato leaf and red pepper. Ample winter and spring rain provided good sub soil moisture and resulted in healthy canopies and good vigour. Summer conditions were very mild. Grapes ripened gracefully with only a few small rain episodes, enough to keep the vines fresh and vibrant. Rainfall was only a little over average for the first months
