2019 ‘ANNIVERSARY’ CABERNET SAUVIGNON
Made from 100% cabernet, planted in Seville in the Upper Yarra in 1999, hence the anniversary bottling. Bottled unfined and unfiltered after 14 months in a combination of new and older barriques. An impressive bright deep purple colour. Dense, with dark fruit, dark chocolate and a moreish, savoury, meaty edge. Concentrated on the palate, this well-made and -priced medium-bodied wine finishes with classic chewy, gravelly tannins. PR 13.5% alc.
$55 / 2032
What will drinkers be rewarded with if they put this wine in their cellar? And at what point do you believe this wine will be at its peak for drinking?
This is very much a wine for the future. Drinking well now with its lovely vibrant fruit structure, it will develop a savoury and earthy character as time goes by. Cellar for at least five years or drink over 20.
