HoughtonJack Mann Cab Blend 2000
About this product
This Cabernet blend honours the legendary Jack Mann contribution to Houghton, serving remarkable 51 consecutive vintages. The passion, creativity and unrelenting search of unique flavour of the great man is portrayed in the exceptional elegance, fruit flavour and power of this wine. With over a decade in bottle, the 2000's fruit intensity is in decline with the fine, soft tannins still balancing the palate for an excellent finish. A powerful yet complex wine with grace and generous style; befitting a legendary character.

Medium purple-red; scented, vibrant and lively fruit on the bouquet, then a palate flooded with cassis, blackberry, blackcurrant, and also juicy berry from the malbec component; beautifully balanced and structured.
