The 2021 Riddoch The Pastoralist Cabernet Sauvignon is an iconic Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, exhibits fresh blackcurrant brambly aromas, smooth, silky textures and generous flavours combined with underlying cedar oak. Aged in new and seasoned French oak barrels for about 12 months. Perfect for drinking now or may be cellared for many years to come.
