First Drop Mothers Ruin Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon | Mclaren Vale, South Australia, Australia

This well balanced expression of McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon is an ode to the ‘luncheon claret’, but it’s not as green and austere as the favourite lunchtime libation at the gentleman’s club. The fruit is from a vineyard with good breeding in the Willunga foothills and the resulting wine has been made in a fruit driven style. At first the appearance is of dark plum is present, then on the nose the aroma is cassis and plum fruit flavours with hints of nettle, tobacco leaf and tea. The palate is black fruits with a round mid palate, an elegant core of tannins and a lovely textured finish.
