Sorby Adams Isolde Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Barossa Cabernet is a curious beast. While it will never replicate what one might seek from Bordeaux or even Margaret River or Coonawarra, that does not mean it can’t be a full-flavoured style that delivers immense pleasure. Vintage conditions can play a role and this vintage does seem to suit the style. The wine spent two years in French oak. A deep maroon hue, the nose exhibits notes of tobacco leaves, chocolate, woodsmoke, aniseed, blackberries and plums. A fine warm climate Cabernet with balance, good length and sleek tannins. Richly flavoured, this is ideal for those who simply want a cracking red. Enjoy this any time from now and over the next six to eight years.
