The wine has lifted aromas of black currant and liquorice, which combine with flavours of blackberry, dark plum and a hint of spice, to produce a rich, full-flavoured wine with excellent length.
The McLaren Vale Region is regarded as one of Australia’s most consistent quality wine producing regions. Situated between gently sloping ranges and the pristine South Australia coast, the Mediterranean climate is ideal for premium grape growing. Premium Cabernet Sauvignon from a single McLaren Vale vineyard was vinified using a combination of fermentation styles and French oak, to highlight the varietal and regional characteristics. It tastes great now and will reward cellaring for 3 to 5 years.
92 Point Rated - Ken Gargett Wine Pilot
"For this easy drinking, well-crafted and good value McLaren Vale Cabernet, the wine saw a mix of fermentation techniques used, including the incorporation of French oak. Blood red/garnet hue here, the nose exhibits spicy notes, a mix of red and darker fruits, a hint of aniseed, warm earth and tobacco leaves. A savoury style with good concentration, we see espresso characters emerging on the palate. Fresh and quite vibrant on the palate, there is good focus, fine tannins and a line of acidity leading to a persistent finish. Attractive wine for enjoying over the next six to eight years."
