Much like its predecessor, this is a respectable cool climate Cabernet. If anything, that fraction of sweet fruit pegs it back a touch.
Blackcurrant and red plum highlight this mouth-filling wine. It coats the mouth with ease and is supported by dried thyme, lead pencil and soft spices. The acid is bright and energetic ensuring medium-term cellaring is well within grasp. All up, it's nicely done.
Drink to eight years.
