Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

2019 Cabernet Sauvignon
Hunter Valley, New South Wales

A rich flavour filled wine with big earthy Cabernet fruit to the fore and lots of velvety dark chocolate and mocha

$75 each

Description

A welcome return of this favourite varietal. The 2019 has echoes of the outstanding 2017 vintage. Just as big and full bodied, this is a must have in the cellar. A decadent combination of wild blackberry and ripe mulberries arrive at the front of the palate, leading into the rich tannins accented with flavours of dark chocolate, coffee, star anise and hints of mint. Excellent oak integration adds to the great complexity of this wine.

FOOD Beautiful with saucy red meat dishes such as casseroles.

CELLARING This wine is already delicious, however 10-15+ years cellaring and it will be an exceptional experience.
