Although still relatively young, this South Aussie Cab is already showing signs of age. The color is fading a little, as is the curranty fruit. What does show prominently is Cab's greener side, in the form of bell pepper and tomato leaf, along with a graphite character. Chewy, muscular tannins and lifted acidity make the palate feel a bit austere but there's a through line of currants and toasty oak, and for those who prefer Cab's more earthy, vegetal side, this will appeal. Drink now through 2028.
