Brown Brothers Patricia Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Share

These cabernets from Brown Brothers have over the years moved towards more complex wines of great elegance and varietal character. This is a classic case in point. The fruit is sourced from a number of different vineyards – Bendigo 52%, King Valley 28%, Great Western 13% and Wrattonbully 7%. The result is a firmly structured classically defined cabernet displaying those beautiful rich blackcurrant characters evident on the nose and palate with a lift of cigar box that says cabernet. It holds a firm chalky tannin thread with a distinct savoury oak influence. This is cabernet with attitude that works so well and is just starting to hit its straps after a couple of years bottle ageing, with plenty more time ahead.
