The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon has an intensity in the mouth that comes from concentrated, ripe, balanced fruit, not from an effort to extract tannin via oak or maceration. This is framed by prominent tannin, but it does so in a very natural, easy way. It is supple, pliable, chewy (good) and flexible in the mouth, resplendent with raspberry, pomegranate, cassis and hints of saltbush and juniper.

Spicy, with star anise and black licorice notes accenting the espresso, cassis and spiced plum flavors at the core. Appealingly concentrated and dense, featuring thick, toothsome tannins. Shows great focus on the long finish. A hint of bay leaf lingers. Drink now through 2035. 5,502 cases made, 512 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / Western Australia / Margaret River Select to Add
