The 2016 Red Blend Throwback is one of the most expressive open-knit wines in this range. Succulent red cherry, pomegranate, rose petal and mint all meld together in this layered, very pretty wine from Canard. The blend is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc.

A tight and silky red with dark-berry and blueberry character, medium body and firm, silky tannins. Delicious finish. If you like plenty of fruit and a reserved style, try this. A blend of 90 per cent cabernet sauvignon with merlot and cabernet franc. Drink now.
