Marcus Ellis - Halliday's Wine Companion
Cabernet has taken plenty of knocks over the last little bit. Reinvention has drawn some new fans, but thoughtful classic expressions deserve more attention. Case in point. Mulberry, blackcurrant, raspberry, cedar, pepper, violet, a fringe of leafiness, sans greenness. It’s varietally direct and linear, with oak quietly shaping and honing, the feel savoury and vibrant. It will be great at table, and it could take some age. Great value.
