The Teakle Wines Port Lincoln Merlot Cabernet 2024 is a beautifully balanced South Australian red blend that combines the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the plush fruit character of Merlot. Sourced from Port Lincoln on the Southern Eyre Peninsula, this medium-bodied wine delivers exceptional drinkability with layers of blackcurrant, mulberry and ripe plum supported by hints of black olive, cedar and tobacco leaf.

The palate is smooth and rounded, offering concentrated blackberry and dark plum flavours alongside notes of mocha, dark chocolate and toasted nuts. Fine-grained tannins provide structure while maintaining a silky texture, leading to a balanced finish with subtle vanilla and gentle spice.

Awarded 92 Points by Russell Gallagher of Vinomasters, this vegan-friendly Merlot Cabernet blend showcases the quality and character of the Southern Eyre Peninsula. Offered as part of a rare winery closure clearance at an impressive 66% off, it represents outstanding value from a producer previously recognised in the James Halliday Wine Companion.

A versatile food wine, it pairs beautifully with slow-roasted lamb shoulder, grilled rib-eye steak, beef burgers, mushroom ragù, aged cheeses and chargrilled vegetables.
