Drink now or cellar for up to 14 years. Decant 2 hours.

A beautiful garnet colour, this Cabernet Sauvignon explodes on the nose with ripe blackberry and cassis, mint and tobacco. The palate is full bodied with beautifully integrated tannins balanced with good acidity and alcohol, although 14.5%, works very well in the balance. The flavours are fruit forward with blackberry, cassis, and boysenberry that mingles with chocolate and more savoury notes of cigars and a little earthiness. The long finish is silky and lingering with a slightly sweet end.

Food matches would be roast beef, steak, game pie, venison, BBQ meats and strong cheese.

The Heitz Cellar has been producing top quality wines for many years and believe that quality trumps quantity every time. Using a combination of traditional winemaker knowledge and cutting edge technology, they have ensured the very best quality with each and every wine they produce. This Cabernet Sauvignon has the benefit of time – 3.5 years in oak barrels prior to a further year in bottle prior to release.
