Tasting Notes
Expressions of blackcurrant sorbet, blueberry & white chocolate muffins, dark chocolate, and anise.
An elegant wine with lingering tannins, clove spiced French oak, gentle structural acidity, and incredible length. Wilyabrup Cabernet Sauvignon showing great regional expression.

Scores
96 / 100"A compelling expression of the variety; the immediately appealing bouquet shows blackcurrant, sweet cherry, spicy oak and subtle cigar notes, leading to a multi-layered mouthfeel offering awesome fruit concentration and persistency. It's brilliantly structured by loads of fine chalky tannins, finishing sturdy and satisfying."

"91/7/1/1% cabernet sauvignon/petit verdot/malbec/cabernet franc; 32yo vines. Matured for 18 months in French oak (44% new). Shaved hung deli meat, blackberry pie, salted black licorice and the sweet gummy character you get off blackcurrant pastilles. The tannins are soft and pliable; they coat the tongue and cheeks and blanket the fruit in a velvet sheath. Quite different from the wines from its neighbours; for that individuality, quite beautiful."
