![Neil Ellis The Left Bank 2021 [gifted]
49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, and a dash of Cabernet Franc and Malbec exude the most beautifully dense colour, enticingly rich with aromas of blackberries and cassis, damson plums, pencil shavings and dry cedar, star anise, and a touch of menthol eucalyptus.
Fuller bodied with moreish acidity and big ripe velvety tannins. Spiced red plums, raspberries and earthy pomegranate accompany the concentration of damson plums and spices; lingering for a generous lengthy finish.
Many thanks to the @neilelliswines team for this well timed quintessentially Bordeaux style red blend that was much appreciated on a chilly evening. And huge congratulations on your brilliant 97 point score at the 2026 Investec Trophy Wine Show!](http://capeofgoodwine.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
