2022 Cabernet

$64.90

A limpid ruby hue, the 2022 Cabernet showing a sweetly lifted aromatic with some almost vanillin notes compared to the leafy tone of the 2021. Beautiful but very subtle French oak just underlying the sweet perfumes. Again that lovely unique Barossa Cabernet plushness upon entry but with quite fine, but evident tannins for the long term. Balanced with some tongue coating natural glycerol from the sur lie ageing. The structure augers well for some cellaring time.

Lengthy finishing in oak barriques provides this wine with astounding longevity of 25+ years on the shelf. Pair with similarly well aged red meats — roasted or slow cooked.
