WoodvaleOrchard Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
About this product
A blend of two Clare Valley vineyards and made in quite a cool and protracted vintage, the OR Cabernet displays all the classic flavours of tobacco leaf, spearmint, riper dark fruits, cassis and subtle French oak highlights in an engaging and persistent palate. Finely shaped tannins round out the experience. A wine drinking perfectly in its youth or one that will further cellaring over 15 plus years.

Here's a fresh, bouyant style of cabernet, full of juicy, bright red currant and fleshy, perfectly ripened cherries. A wine that doesn't weigh heavily on the palate. An uncluttered, pure fruited, bouncy, fresh red that is a joy to drink.

From Watervale and Sevenhill, matured in new and used French hogsheads for 15 months. The benison of '17 has preserved the impeccable varietal character, but at the cost of patricians that need to discover how to bend the knee.
