First, a story.
In the 1920s, Italian immigrants Cesare and Olympio Credaro made their way to Margaret River and a new life on the land. Credaro’s Kinship wine label celebrates their journey and pioneering achievements.
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is fine testimony to their hard work, a wine of generosity, plush in fruit and classic in style with oak often vying for the drinker’s attention.
Opaque blood red in colour. Margaret River hallmark aromas of blackberry, dark chocolate, bay leaf, bramble with a note of cigar box.
There’s power in the wine’s delivery of black fruits, dried herbs, and eucalypt, the fruit slurping up the oak and bringing a sense of harmony throughout.
Well-judged tannins.
