Owned by German Weiss family, Elephant Hill is a vineyard andwinery estate making premium, hand crafted wines. Reserve winesare only made if the growing season, the grapes and the resulting wine match up to Elephant Hill Reserve quality.2015 was an exceptional vintage and the weather was consistent which allowed us to grow and ripen grapes to optimum quality. This blend is made of 72% Merlot, 20% Malbec and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon from grapes hand-picked off our Gimblett Vineyard (58%)and Triangle Vineyard (42%). After fermentation the wine was aged for 24 months in French oak(42% new), then blended and had a further 3 months on lees in tank.There was no racking which allow the wine to have great volume and weight.This is a concentrated, medium to full bodied blend. With ripe blackberry and plum characters, fine grained tannins and a fresh acidity all giving the wine a wonderful balance it will age well and improve for 10 years from vintage.
