The King and the Black Bird Mixed Case celebrates two classic red varieties that have earned their place at the table. With three bottles each of Fairview Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 and Fairview Merlot 2023, this collection offers two distinctive styles that complement one another beautifully.
Fairview Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 opens with aromas of ripe black cherries, herbs and subtle notes of forest floor. The medium-bodied palate shows fresh plum and ripe black berry flavours, supported by pliable tannins and a structured finish. It drinks beautifully now and will continue to develop over the next four to five years.
In contrast, Fairview Merlot 2023 offers a softer, more rounded style. Aromas of red berries, plums, cocoa and French oak spice lead into a medium-bodied palate with balanced tannins, red berry fruit and a harmonious finish. It will continue to age well for three to five years.
Whether you're planning a special dinner or simply exploring two timeless varieties, this mixed case offers the opportunity to enjoy both expressions side by side.
