2x Monolith Vintners Monolithic Old Vine Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 - 14.50%
A massive intense and enticing nose, the initial hit of exotic fruit once allowed to breathe will mellow. Black berry and dark cherry are the dominant character whilst varietal character of cassis is also very evident. The French oak influence is still evident despite its age and highlights the quality of the new large format oak used. Concentrated, tremendous texture and depth are hallmarks of this wine. The great richness which comes from black fruits flavours is immense, brooding and dense. The age of the wine is evident through notes of earth and leather saddle although the fruit is just so potent that they are just a side show. This style of wine requires decanting and time to breathe to soften prior to consuming although will be cellared prior to release the wine has the fruit, alcohol and tannin structure to ensure cellaring for many more years where it will continue to evolve.

96 Point Rated Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot
"From a vineyard planted around 1985, neighbouring the famous railway line between Coonawarra and Penola, maturation was for almost two years in French oak, 30% new. For me, one of the stars of this year’s releases and certainly, hands down, the top value offering. Shades of opaque purple, this is still very young, though absolutely gorgeous. Approachable, with spicy notes, mulberries, cassis, blackberries, mint and tobacco leaves – a really impressive example of Coonawarra supported by firm and abundant tannins, impeccable balance and a fine lingering finish with the intensity maintained throughout. A stunning Coonawarra Cabernet which will drink beautifully over the next decade or two. Wines like this would make Jim very proud of what his family is achieving."

"Bright red fruit of Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon bursts out of the blocks. The red berry and high-end florals lift with a subtle cedary oak character. The palate is still quite tight as the influence of the 24 months in mostly French oak has an initial impact. Fine chalky tannins and neatly balanced oak complement the intense and concentrated fruit delivered with medium weight."

"From a single vineyard in Coonawarra, and a top vintage, the colour here is a near black hue. It is a ripe and chocolatey style with notes of black olives, cloves, blackberries, plums and of course, chocolate. There is good focus throughout, through to fine, sleek tannins. Good balance and terrific persistence. This is delicious drinking now and surely at least over the next six to eight years."
