The deep crimson-coloured 2006 Quinta Sardonia gives up an aromatic array of cedar, Asian spices, incense, and blackberry. Savoury and supple on the palate, it has enough underlying structure to evolve for 2-3 years and should be at its best from 2012 to 2026.

This Merlot sets the standard for elegance with a perfume of red fruits and earthy notes and flavors of raspberry, plum and black pepper. On the palate, the wine is silky yet bright, a classic Trefethen.

This alluring blend has rich aromas of ripe red plum, baking spices and cracked pepper. The palate is lush with flavours of cherries and dark berries. Malbec brings colour and diversity of fruit; Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon lend the darker fruits and robust structure.
