February 8, 2019 - Small decant prior to drinking. Beautiful colour still Ruby with a tinge of purple running through it, small hints of garnet around the hue. A herbaceous entry point driven cab that is very leaf predominant, blackcurrant and tomato leaf, undertone hints of blackcurrant, redcurrant and cigar box. Palate is soft but a little fleshy, acid low with a slight grip on the tannins, finish solid a medium. At its peak, drink up over the next couple years.
I’m not a very green sorta cabernet guy but I have strangely enjoyed this for whatever reason, Houghton’s top end wines are seriously leaps and bounds ahead of this.1,223 views
