Fox in the Hen HouseBarossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
About this product
Fox in the Hen House: an easy-to-understand common expression, symbolizing a great disruptor. In this case, it’s the market for Australian reds, with its craft wine offerings and innovative, irreverent marketing. Our Barossa Cabernet is deep black in colour, with a squid ink hue. It has aromas of subtle and sophisticated spice, cassis, crushed tobacco leaf and vanilla. The palate has a fine and generous mouthfeel. It is a well-balanced and surprisingly powerful wine.

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.

Wonderfully ripe and inviting, the bouquet shows blackcurrant, smoked wood, bay leaf and dark chocolate aromas, followed by a succulent palate that is beautifully weighted and plump. The wine offers generous fruit richness and silky mouthfeel, finishing persistent and satisfying. At its best: now to 2020.
