McLaren Vale, Australia
About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of CabernetMcLaren Vale, AustraliaWith the lovely palate length and balance that make Cabernet Sauvignon 'king', it is full bodied yet is no West Coast wanna-be. Made from fastidiously selected barrels, we are quietly confident that it will be the first wine you'll want to jump into at any line up.
Rich plum and blackcurrant flavours swerve into savoury liquorice and cedar notes, followed by a friendly toot of thyme.

"This is splendidly appealing on the nose showing cassis, green olive, spicy oak, and rich floral aromas, followed by a plump mouthfeel offering excellent fruit power and density. Superbly structured by loads of fine tannins, making it firmly structured and sturdy. At its best: 2023 to 2035. " 5 stars.

"Rank Cabernet for short. From McLaren Vale. Dusty, leafy, mint-and-tobacco style of cabernet with boysenberry and redcurrant fruit flavours as the conduits. Noticeably low in oak influence and fluid/juicy from start to finish. It has a bit of stuffing and it will age but it’s drinking well already, as a one-year-old, though the slight bitterness to the aftertaste will benefit given some extra time in the bottle."
