Cabernet Sauvignon
Thorn Clarke William Randell Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
Drink it now or cellar it for up to 15 years. It is recommended to decant it for half an hour.
Thorn-Clarke is a renowned Barossa Valley winery with a long family tradition. In fact, its name derives from the union of two families with six generations of history in the region's wine industry. David and Cheryl Clarke (nee Thorn) founded the current company in 2002, along with their children. Among their vineyards, it is one of the oldest Shiraz vineyards in Australia (and perhaps in the world) whose first records date back to 1854.
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is part of the William Randell range, a selection of wines dedicated to one of the ancestors of the family who arrived in Australia almost 200 years ago. It is produced from the best plots and barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon and only in the best vintages and is aged for 18 months in barrels (40% of which are new).
The wine is balanced and intense with a typical Barossa character and strong varietal notes. On the nose, it offers a fine bouquet of dark berries such as currants and blueberries, followed by licorice, and subtle peppery and vanilla nuances. On the palate, it is rich and bold with firm tannins and a long fruity finish. Try it with game stews and braised meat.
