2019 MAYGARS HILL RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON

- Jenny Houghton, Victor Nash and Lindsay Brown

A distinctiv­e cabernet described by the maker as an ‘elegant’ version of the standard cabernet, with a percentage of whole bunches added to the ferment. Matured in American and French oak for 16 months, it has slurped up the oak, retaining a cedary sheen. A deep, dark world of violets, cassis, briar and wild forest berries. Light savourines­s on the palate. Supple and, yes, elegant. Bring out the decanter with this one. JP 13% alc.

$42 / 2029

What’s special about this wine, and when do you believe it will be at its peak for drinking?

The elegant fruit of 2019 was judiciousl­y matched with the perfect style of oak. This is integratin­g beautifull­y with time. We would recommend sampling a bottle every year or so as the wine will develop progressiv­ely, so make sure you have enough of this one on hand.
