Archery Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

A fine warmer climate Cabernet from an excellent vintage, the fruit is harvested from a single site in the Barossa. A fifteen-day fermentation, followed by a further 21 months in French barriques and hogsheads, 28% of which were new. An inky maroon hue here, the flavours move through cloves, soy, licorice, blackberries, chocolate, leather, cassis, and tobacco leaves. There are good up-front fruit flavours here complimented by fine grip and a seductive texture. Drink for at least the next six years. A really enjoyable warmer climate Cabernet, though it could step up to the next level with a little more length and intensity.
