We ripped open a huge feed of mixed HokKien noodles & Mongolian beef and attempted to challenge this wine to a duel. The results were astounding. This Cabernet Sauvignon is a fine example of a McLaren Vale Cabernet, and in my book from a very underrated vintage. The nose is smack bang in your face fresh & lively with enticing blackcurrant fruit, savoury olive
and just the right hint of leafy aromas. Palate wise this wine melds over the mouth space with a solid structure based on pure fruit intensity, tannin, balanced alcohol, and comes together as a complete well balanced wine. Hints of toffee, spice and plum fruit. Silky smooth tannins from olf fashioned cap management go a long way to improving the overall density of structure left in the bottle. In my opinion a very , very good Cabernet Sauvignon.
