OK, So it is truely ridiculous that I can offer you this wine , at this price........A Giant killer 6 years old Cabernet Sauvignon you won't get close to finding again at a price like this! So, Please , stop dithering and just get on a sure thing!
If you are a super premium - Pre-cellared buyer - Coonawarra Cabernet drinker - (that hates paying over $100 per bottle for new aged wine let alone a perfectly stored and cellared Coonawarra I am about to introduce you to your new Best Friend!
"And because you buy this - You will have a lot more be a lot of them, friends that is!"
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 6 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.
