Many critics score this McLaren Vale wine highly.
Critic tasting note: Still a medium hued crimson colour, no whole bunches here, nine months in older French oak. Spicier than the previous wines, a little meatier in terms of its aromas. Mouthfilling and ripe fruit, really quite tangy, there's a plummy quality, but a rasp of tannin and souring acidity that gives some grip and real gastronomic appeal." - 91/100, Tom Cannavan
Deep ruby in the glass, this cabernetSauvignon commands attention from the moment it is poured. Rich, luscious scents of sweet berry fruits entice the nose, opening to wisps of cola, licorice and spice. An intense core of ripe blackberry and boysenberry greets the palate, giving way to notes of cassis, vanilla and earth. Firm tannins and food-friendly acidity balance the plush fruit, leading to a long, pleasant finish.
The intense character and complex nature of this Cabernet Sauvignon is a strong partner for meat dishes such as beef stew and roasted venison. Try it also with a flavourful starter, such as gorgonzola and walnuts, or a simple dessert, like espresso gelato.
Aromas of leather and forest floor greet the nose and are enhanced by dark cherry, plum and vanilla oak. The palate has elegant fine-grained tannins and an incredible texture that supports a lovely earthy, truffle-like complexity. A perfect balance of fruit and oak in a complex, weighty style.
