This is a classic Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon with lots of fragrant, perfectly ripe fruit. Aromatically it is all youthful exuberance with lashings of blackberries, blackcurrant, cherries and plums. It’s more savoury on the palate with baking spices and a hint of cocoa powder, mint leaves and tobacco box. It finishes beautifully balanced, with fine ripe tannins. Pair with a rosemary-crusted lamb.
Nicole loves wine. So much so that she gave up a successful career in Pharmacy, perfected her spitting technique, and moved from sunny Queensland to the wine-drenched laneways of Melbourne. Stints in hospitality, wineries, retail, sales and marketing filled the next few years while Nicole built her knowledge and searched for the right path. She completed the Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) Diploma in 2016 and became a certified WSET Educator the following year. She now juggles a number of roles including teaching people about wine, curating wines lists for restaurants and bars, judging in Australian wine shows and, of course, writing. In 2016 she won the Negociants Working With Wine writing award and has since contributed to Gourmet Traveller WINE, Halliday Wine Companion Magazine and Nourish Magazine.
