Monday, October 18, 2021 - Appearance: Bright and clear, the wine is of deep ruby colour, with garnet rim and legs.
Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity aromas of black fruit of blackberry and cassis, mineral notes of earth, maturity notes of savoury, pungent spice of liquorice, kernel notes of chocolate, oak notes of cedar. The wine is developing.
Palate: Dry with medium acidity, the wine has medium (+) tannin of ripe and silky texture, medium alcohol, medium (+) body and medium (+) intensity flavours of black fruit of blackberry and cassis, mineral notes of earth, pungent spice of black pepper, oak notes of cedar, maturity notes of tobacco. The wine has a medium (+) finish.
Conclusion: Very good quality Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon with a fairly intense nose showing great complexity, with black fruit and earthy notes, followed by liquorice and chocolate, and good cedary oak and savoury development. On the palate the wine has good structure and in nice harmony, with the acidity lively and the tannin of silky texture. The flavours are fairly concentrated too with a nice tobacco note on the finish. Finishing with a fairly long finish, it is ready to drink now but can further develop for another 4-6 years.
