Cape Landing Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

A wonderful example of Margaret River Cabernet – desert island drinking, if ever there was. The fruit hails from a single vineyard in the region and the wine has seen ten months maturation in French oak. A dark red/magenta hue here, this is a finely crafted, exquisitely flavoured Cabernet with an impressively perfumed nose. It reveals aromas of plums, cassis, blackberries, chocolate, cranberries and bay leaves. It is also seamless, refined and rather elegant, with firm tannins providing some serious grip, and excellent length. The palate sees the emergence of cold tea notes and more black fruits. For drinking over the next eight to twelve years, this is a style which international Cabernet lovers will find most appealing. Terrific value here.
