Levantine Hill Glen Garvald PB Red Blend No. 2 2021 is a limited-release red blend from the Yarra Valley’s Glen Garvald site. It combines depth, structure, and complexity with restrained oak, delivering a modern yet classic profile.
- Key appeal: estate provenance, GPS-level site drive, and a layered palate that evolves with age.
- Style and pairing: full-bodied and perfumed. Suitable for short-term cellaring to develop further complexity.
Tasting notes
- Color: Deep ruby.
- Nose: Blackberries and black plums with cassis, cocoa, espresso, vanilla, and a touch of dried herb.
- Palate: Rich dark fruit core (blackberry, black cherry, plum), wrapped in baking spices, cocoa, and tobacco. Firm, fine tannins underpin a supple yet structured mid-palate, with bright acidity and solid oak integration.
- Finish: Long, with persistent dark chocolate and peppery spice. Overall impression: a balanced, age-worthy red blend with both fruit intensity and savoury depth.
