Cabernet Sauvignon
Battle of Bosworth Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
A classic McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon with ripe tannins, blackcurrant and herbal notes on the nose, terrific length and structure and a balance; the fruit more than matches the fine tannin structure.
Aromas of red and blackcurrant, crushed stone and fresh herbs. Full-bodied with velvety tannins. Fresh on the palate with some graphite undertones. A super fresh varietal Cabernet, proving once again, if proof were needed, that McLaren Vale makes fantastic Cabernets.
Making this Cabernet Sauvignon is very much a case of staying steady on our course. They pick when the grapes are flavour and sugar ripe, crush then ferment in small open vessels. Once nearly through ferment, they pump the wine into one and two-year old French oak barrels (and a few older ones) where is finishes ferment. The wine then spends roughly 12 months in oak before being bottled.
Alc/Vol: 14.5%
