Cabernet Sauvignon

2012 Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon

The Di Giorgio Family Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2012 vintage showcases the exceptional qualities of Coonawarra, a region renowned for its clay soils and ideal climate for grape growing. This red wine exhibits a deep, rich color that entices the eye. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied experience, with velvety tannins that provide a luxurious mouthfeel. The acidity is perfectly balanced, offering a freshness that complements the bold, prominent fruit intensity characterized by notes of dark berries, cassis, and hints of spice. Its well-integrated oak adds nuances of chocolate and toasted vanilla, enhancing the overall complexity. Whether enjoyed alongside a hearty meal or savored on its own, this Cabernet Sauvignon is a true testament to the craftsmanship of the Di Giorgio family and the distinctive terroir of Coonawarra.
