    A Storm in a Glass

    This wine is as bold and untamed as the Blue Men themselves. With intense flavors of blackberry and a touch of smokiness, it feels like a storm brewing in the Minch. Yet, the silky finish calms the tempest, much like the Blue Men’s rumored charm. A glass of legend and lore.

    A Taste of Myth and Majesty

    Like the enigmatic Blue Men of Minch, this Cabernet Sauvignon is both bold and captivating. The rich flavors of blackcurrant and plum reminded me of the dark, swirling depths of their mythical waters, while the velvety tannins felt as smooth as their legendary charm. Saltire Estate has crafted a wine worthy of its name—a legend in the making.

    A Cabernet Fit for Legends

    The 2023 Blue Men Cabernet Sauvignon feels like it carries the mystique of its namesake—the Scottish Blue Men of Minch. As I sipped this wine, I imagined the bold flavors of blackberry and cassis echoing the stormy seas these mythical creatures call home. The subtle notes of dark chocolate and cedar add a depth as mysterious as their lore. A wine that tells a story with every sip.
