Monday, August 1, 2016 - Appearance: Bright and clear, it has deep ruby color, with purplish tinge and legs.
Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity aromas of black fruit of blackcurrant and dark cherries, oak notes of vanilla and cedar, maturity notes of savory, animal notes of leather, kernel notes of milk chocolate, pungent spice of licorice. The wine is developing.
Palate: Dry with medium (+) acidity, medium (+) tannin of ripe and silky texture, the wine has medium (+) alcohol and medium (+) body, showing medium (+) intensity flavors of black fruit of blackcurrant and dark cherries, oak notes of cedar, sweet spice of clove, kernel notes of chocolate, pungent spice of licorice. The wine has a medium (+) finish.
Conclusion: Very good quality Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, with an intense nose showing good complexity, the wine is juicy, with nice fruity notes on the palate, elegant and well-structured. It has good concentration and a fairly long finish, and this is probably the best time to drink the vintage in my opinion, but can further develop for another 3-5 years.
