2006 Greg Norman Limestone Coast Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Blend, Australia, $15

This wine is a blend of 88% Cabernet and 12% Merlot, the Cabernet gave it the structure and the Merlot gave it the finesse. The nose has layers of allspice and pepper with some plum notes. These lead into a medium bodied wine with layers of spice, oak, and nice bright red cherries and raspberries. The finish has just the right amount of oak to bind the flavors together and keeps the two grapes style in check. A terrific blend at a very fair price. Perfect match for grilled rib eyes or beef kabobs.
