Cabernet Sauvignon

2009 South Eastern Australia Cabernet Sauvignon

This red wine showcases a delightful medium body, perfectly balancing richness and approachability. Its acidity is bright and mouthwatering, adding a refreshing lift to the overall experience. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring luscious flavors of blackcurrant, dark cherry, and hints of plum, which are beautifully complemented by subtle notes of oak and spice. Tannins are notable yet smooth, providing a firm structure that enhances the wine's complexity while remaining well-integrated. This Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted in a dry style, making it an ideal companion for hearty dishes or enjoyed on its own.
