  The Professor Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
 
 
Professor Cab.gif
 
A collaboration with one of Coonawarra's oldest adn most respected producers, this 2010 Cabernet is elegant, lean and great bang for your buck! Opaque black crimson red in colour with a dark ox-blood hue. There are distinct aromas of blackcurrant, a touch of typical cool climate mint, cedar and a good dose of spice warmth. Medium weight, the palate presents an elegant flavour profile of dark cherry, mulberry and spearmint with some underlying cedar and a plenty of spice. Fine grained tannins. Dryish finish with aftertaste of dark mulberry, mint and cedar. You don't get much better than good, old fashioned Cab Sauv!

From the winemaker Wayne Stehbens:
This is quintessential Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon.
Supple, medium bodied wine with elegant aromas of red berries, violets and hints of mint. Well proportioned with generous fruit and a persistent finish.
An easy partner to a wide range of foods including pasta, red meats, quail and dishes with spicy or smokey flavours.
