About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Cabernet SauvignonPairs well with BeefWith the Strathbogie Ranges at the heart of everything that Fowles do, this wine actually proves the rule rather than being 'The Exception'. As part of a flagship range of wines, The Exception Cabernet Sauvignon is driven by one-off parcels of exceptional fruit and inventive winemaking projects envisioned the Fowles expert winemaking team. Always strictly limited in numbers and never-to-be repeated, this Cabernet shows the perfect balance between power and purity. Bold cassis and blueberry fruit is meshed together wonderfully with fine grained tannin and a structure that will see this exceptional wine live for many years in the cellar.

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.

Approaching a decade in age and showing no signs of halting what has been a stratospheric drive to something truly special. Densely powerful, now unleashing a vein of bell pepper, intertwined cedar oak and textural undergrowth. All these nuances are joining a still climbing crescendo of currants and black cherries, smashing in presence yet poised entirely within finely tuned tannins and a well maintained structural line. An event wine, and one to be most remembered from the dinner party it attends.
