This wine is a delicious example of Cabernet from a cooler site, like the Limestone Coast. Lots of bright lift for a firm-bodied varietal. There's a real balance of ripe blackberry and cassis with sweet vanilla, earthy woodsy spices and cooling menthol. The wine is easy to drink, while still having that confidence and stand up sophistication we can always count on Cab for.

Origin: It’s believed that the first wines made were in the Medoc region, in the west of France. Mainly Grown In: France leads the way here, with Bordeaux the big one. Also California, South Australia, central and northern Italy, plus Argentina. Key Facts: Cabernet Sauvignon is truly a globetrotter. Having it’s home in Bordeaux certainly helped it’s rapid expansion, as the Bordelaise (those coming from Bordeaux) are excellent marketers of their own product! Now found in almost all wine-producing countries of the world, Cab Sav is traditionally full-bodied, loaded with plenty of dark fruit (think blueberry and blackberry) and backed up by a zing of herbal/grassy kind of flavours. It’s also known for its strong backbone of tannin – that furry, drying sensation you sometimes get with red wines. Cabernet has plenty of it, but is still a smooth talker regardless. Fun Fact: Did you know that Cabernet Sauvignon is the second most planted red grape in Australia? You probably did since Australia is also one of the biggest consumers of the grape also.
