Cabernet Sauvignon! Often hailed as the king of red grapes, it certainly commands attention with its structured elegance and impressive depth. Imagine a wine that speaks of dark fruit intensity, think of the concentrated flavours of blackcurrant and blackberry forming its core.
Beyond the fruit, Cabernet Sauvignon often reveals intriguing layers of complexity. You might discover subtle notes of cedar and tobacco, particularly in wines that have seen some time in oak. Depending on the terroir and winemaking, hints of mint, eucalyptus, or even a touch of graphite can add further intrigue. As it ages, these characteristics can evolve into more savoury nuances of leather and earth.
A bold full-bodied wine which delivers generous ripe fruit. Aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant are complemented by cedar and vanilla notes. Ripe dark berries, lead by cassis, complement the fine tannins which contribute to a long finish.
