If you love Cabernet then do yourself a favour and jump on this wine from Pirramimma that exudes McLaren Vale richness with every sniff and slurp. It’s the kind of wine that benefits some time in the decanter before you unleash its grapey charms on some unsuspecting guests. It’s loaded with blackcurrants and violets and lashings of spice and mocha before a vital palate of berries, briar and oak. It’s elegantly structured with firmness and more length than the great wall of China.
Awards and Accolades
94 Points - James Halliday, Wine Companion "Shows that, when conditions are right, McLaren Vale can produce cabernet with convincing varietal character, needing no embellishment of lots of new French oak, bringing with it its own structure and texture. This really is a smart wine, with a juicy cassis component to finish it off."
