Haselgrove Protector Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Sourced from two fine vineyards in McLaren Vale, this wine spent 16 months in a mix of new and older French oak. Near opaque black/maroon. Notes of spices, florals, black olives, black cherries, blackberries, aniseed and cassis. A seriously ‘black’ wine in every respect and a cracker. The tannins are softer on the finish, which is gentle and lingering. Well balanced, this is a really fine warmer climate Cabernet with at least a decade ahead of it. Good stuff!
