Our Tasting Panel’s Trent Mannell says it best: “These are essential Cabernets from brands at the very top of their game.” The classic varietal hallmarks of currant, cedar and mint are on full display in this showcase, which features superb aged and more youthful examples across both bigger and mid-weights styles, letting you experience the power and elegance of this noble variety with some of the best examples around!
With the cellaring already done for you, the Jack Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 ticks all the boxes for lovers of big classic reds. Beautifully concentrated red and black fruit aromas open to a still-vibrant core of inky black fruits with beautiful freshness, while loads of deluxe barrel provides oak spice with wonderful harmony and balance. Youthful and vibrant from start to finish, it’s a deeply flavoured wine from a 9/10 vintage that captures the essence of a Coonawarra Cabernet.
From the Adelaide Plains and the talented hands of Nick Haselgrove comes the Clarence Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 2017. Youthful and tight in a medium to full-bodied frame with a core of red and black fruit, cassis and cedar oak, fine tannins and black pepper hints to finish, this warmer climate style really shows off what makes the region such a standout. Ideal with lamb sausages on pumpkin mash.
