Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry
Lerida Estate sits above Lake George on the Canberra District's eastern edge, and Georgianus is their Bordeaux blend — Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The district's altitude and cold nights give these varieties a fine-boned, savoury shape quite unlike warmer Australian Cabernet: cassis and red plum with cedar, graphite, violet and a leafy herbal lift. Medium-bodied with firm, fine tannin and bright acidity. Structure and perfume rather than fruit weight.
