Castelli Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Very dense, bold, generous wine – the perfect 2018 vintage showing off here. Lashings of cassis, coffee and vanilla – oak is evident and powerful, offering plenty of space for the fruit to develop in time. Plenty of shape and frame with a grippy tannin profile – this will age nicely.
