Allegiance Wines Unity Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Bottle after bottle proves why Margaret River is such a world class region for Cabernet. This is another cracker. Selected from vineyards from the Wilyabrup and Wallcliffe sub-regions. The fruit was destemmed and then fermented for ten days on skins; 30% had a lengthy maceration. The wine saw nine months maturation in French oak barriques, 20% new. Crimson/purple, there is a wonderful nose here – plums, blackberries, cassis, aniseed and a hint of graphite. This is all class, the winemaker should take a bow. Fine use of oak, this is a medium weight style, impeccably balanced with silky tannins and such length! A cracker. Drink for ten to fifteen years.
