B&H Rags to Riches Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

If ever a vintage, variety and region combined to offer a slam dunk, it must surely be Margaret River Cabernet from 2023. The wine saw maturation in French oak for twelve months. A deep magenta hue, this is well crafted, with fine oak integration proceeding apace. There are enticing aromas of black cherries, graphite, licorice, blackberries, plums, tobacco leaves and warm earth. The wine has focus, a fine balance, sleek tannins, juicy acidity and is of medium length. It will drink impressively for the best part of a decade.
