Stonehaven are all about producing classic Australian wine and this Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception. This Cabernet heads down a path of blackberries and cassis with a touch of green capsicum and chewy, ripe tannins that will handle a warm fireplace and a cosy blanket.

Origin: It’s believed that the first wines made were in the Médoc region, in the west of France. Mainly Grown In: France, USA, Australia, Italy, Chile, South Africa, Argentina, Spain, NZ… all over, really! Key Facts: Cabernet Sauvignon is truly a globetrotter. Having a home in Bordeaux certainly helped its 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 Facts: Every August, on the Thursday before Labor Day … it is Cabernet Sauvignon Day!! Set a reminder (like you need an excuse to have a glass of this delicious drop).
