Petaluma Coonawarra Evans Vineyard 2021

This was a superb vintage in Coonawarra and this blend of old vine Cabernet Sauvignon from the Evans Vineyard and some Merlot has really produced something quite exceptional. The aroma shows a blackberry, black currant combination with a light lift of red fruits. Typical Coonawarra leafiness is there, but this is fully ripe leafiness and with the fine silky tannins and judicious use of oak, it really does come together rather beautifully. A wine that exemplifies and highlights the Coonawarra elegance of red wines. This is certainly one of the best.
