2021 Hills & Coast McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon
McLaren Vale
The Hills and Coast have a significant influence on the grapes grown on vineyards in McLaren Vale. The McLaren Vale region is moderated by cool ocean breezes from the coast that borders the region to the west and is also influenced by the gully breezes from the bordering Adelaide Hills to the East. This Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from a vineyard in McLaren Vale which sits an equal distance from the Coast and the Hills, creating a unique and distinctive microclimate.
92 points James Suckling
"This is an exceptional value. Clear, crystalline aromas of dried sage, currants and bay leaves. Dried seaweed, bracken and iodine, imparting a firm maritime disposition to a full-bodied and immensely refined cabernet. Far more detailed and distinguished than this price should ever permit. Drink or hold." Review by Ned Goodwin MW
93 points – Wine Orbit Sam Kim
"Varietally expressive and inviting, the bouquet shows blackcurrant, dried herb, clove and roasted almond characters, followed by a splendidly weighted palate offering fine texture backed by polished tannins, finishing persistent and sturdy. At its best: now to 2031." Review by Sam Kim
