Still fresh and lively, this 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon has herbal notes of bay and sage that add a savory element to its bright red currant flavors. This medium-bodied wine is soft, supple and very drinkable, with just enough dustiness on the finish to make it a viable partner for lamb or beef.

"Picked at precisely the right moment(s), allowing passionfruit, gooseberry and guava free rein, given context and structure by grainy acidity. A classy wine, don't leave it on the shelf."
