Clarendon Hills
Brookman Clarendon Cabernet Sauvignon
Clarendon, Fleurieu, South Australia, Australia
Having tasted some of the worlds best Cabernet all day I had my doubts as to how this would hold up, turns out I needn’t worry. Laced with violets and eucalypt lift supported by fresh black currant, black currant pastille, plum skin, pencil shavings and toasty oak. Just avoids going into full bodied territory, but the swathe of tannin and fresh acidity keeps the wine in balance. Still a baby.

May 2nd, 2019McLaren Vale - big and ripe, black fruited, chocolate, eucalypt. Fleshy tannin that gives it a nice Cabernet leatheriness and savoury finish.
