Alcohol: 14%

Date Tasted: February 18th, 2015

Tasting Notes: A nice, broody, cool climate Cabernet Sauvignon with masculine aromas  of cassis, plum, blackberry, coffee grinds and vanilla fudge with subtle oak and cooking spice notes in the background. Cool-berry fruit leads the entry on the well-structured palate with layers of savoury and cocoa flavours appearing mid-palate and through to the long finish where dusty tannins and spicy-vanilla-mint notes linger. 
Ready to go now, though, this Cab should benefit from further cellar time. Drink 2015-2019.
