About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Cabernet SauvignonCoonawarra, AustraliaPenley Estate Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine that captures and enhances the distinctive characters of Coonawarra. Complex, fresh with blackcurrant leaf notes, touch of mulberry and blackberry fruits and hints of liquorice plus fragrant sweet cedar notes linger on the nose. The palate is multi-layered, generous and has a great balance of acid, fruit and tannin. Flavours of striking, rich berry characters, strong vanillin lead into smoky notes from the fine grained French oak which add length and depth to the finish. A wine from a great vintage due to the ideal weather, average yields and trouble free harvest.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Made with header boards keeping the cap submerged, and finishing fermentation in barrels. The colour is good, and the flavours are in the cassis heartland of cabernet, but the tannins are in an argumentative mood, and need to get out of the bottle on the right side - I think they will in a few years.
