Reserve

2006 Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon

The Penley Estate Reserve, a remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon from the renowned Coonawarra region, captivates with its deep red hue that hints at its complexity. This 2006 vintage showcases a full-bodied structure, embodying the characteristic richness of Coonawarra Cabernet. With high acidity, it dances on the palate, offering a mouthwatering sensation that enhances its vibrant fruit profile. The tannins are structured and firm, providing an impressive backbone that promises excellent aging potential. Ripe blackcurrant and plum notes meld beautifully with subtle hints of tobacco and spice, creating a harmonious balance that truly reflects the terroir of Coonawarra. The wine is bone dry, allowing the fruit to shine through, making it an exceptional choice for a variety of pairings, from hearty red meat dishes to rich, aged cheeses.
