2023 Credaro Kinship Cabernet Sauvignon 6 Pack

Ray Jordan

Like so many cabernets from this vintage, it displays elegance and style, but at the same time, there is structure and poise. A little petit verdot and malbec have been introduced, making an important contribution, but in the main it’s all about the blackcurrant and blackberry notes, even with a touch of dark chocolate. There’s brightness and energy, with deep, vigorous concentration and a lift of light oyster shell minerality carrying it forward. A trace of bay leaf, a little dark chocolate, and that touch of French oak finishes it off. Very impressive wine.

The colour here is a dark maroon with a vibrant mauve rim. The nose reveals aromas of blackcurrants, leather, licorice, blueberries, dried herbs, bay leaves and spices. There is a touch of vanilla from the French oak. Well structured, this is a wine of medium length, good energy, juicy acidity and very good length, finishing with fine tannins. On the palate we see the emergence of touches of bright cassis. Enjoy this over the next six to ten years. Cracking value.

Chocolate, hazelnuts, mulberries and bay leaves on the nose, followed by a full-bodied, fruity and tangy palate. Nicely filled in.
