This Cabernet Sauvignon boasts vibrant red fruit on both the nose and palate is supported by restrained oak. Although drinking well now, this wine will continue to develop in flavour and complexity with medium term cellaring.
Savory notes linger on the edges of this red, with a toasty, chicory overtone to the cola and plum core. The tannins provide some traction on the finish.
Fruit from the Schrapel vineyards and a close friend and neighbour went into the creation of this wine. The lifted nose has classic Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon notes of blackberries, mulberries and freshly shaved pencils whilst the palate holds rich red and blackberry fruits within a taut medium-bodied framework of fine-grained tannins that fan through a long and structured finish. Well balanced and with the structure to age gracefully and the fruit to be enjoyed now the decision to cellar or enjoy now is a difficult one.
