A Giant killer Cabernet Sauvignon you won't get close to again!
If you are a super premium Coonawarra Cabernet drinker - that hates paying over $100 per bottle for new aged wine let alone perfectly stored and cellared Coonawarra I am about to introduce you to your new Best Friends - there will be a lot of them!
As a lover of Australian Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends, no doubt your mind immediately turns to Coonawarra, South Australia - the regional king of Cabernets! The aging capacity & ability of Coonawarra Coonawarra Cab Sav. wines are world-class, and it’s what sets the wines apart from others: a fact endorsed by generations of collectors around the world, who have cellared them for up to 60 years!!
This beast is deliciously and seductively smooth, luscious and with 11 years bottle age well rounded but definitely still on its way to great heights. A great match with roast lamb. Matured in new French ask hogshead for 22 months, the wine exhibits a complete but firm tannins structured ripe fruit characters.
