Pirate Cru William Hunt Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

 


Super dark in the glass, this Barossa Cabernet is steak or roast beef material. It needs that protein to break it down.

There's a splash of Petit Verdot (8%) in here too. It sees 20 months in French and American oak. Blackberries and black currants lie atop a bed of dried Mediterranean herbs and soft spice. A soft mintiness flirts around the edges. Mouthfilling and puckering, moisture is sapped from the mouth. Some good, aged hard cheese would do the job too.

Drink to eight years+
