Biscay Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

 A step up here for the Biscay Road range, with this fine Cabernet spending a year and a half in French oak puncheons. The vineyard, 64 acres with a range of red varieties, is based on clay in the Tanunda/Bethany sub-regions. This wine is a deep blood red. There are notes of bay leaves, black cherries, blackberries, plums and hints of chocolate. There is just a touch of toasty oak evident. The wine offers us a supple texture and good length and there is a degree of that typical Cabernet austerity. Well structured, this is a wine with good focus and fine, firm tannins. For drinking over the next six to eight years.
