2014 Hardys HRB D647 Cabernet Sauvignon, Margaret River, Coonawarra, Frankland River

Interwoven fruit characters such as cassis and herbs from Margaret River; chocolate-mint richness from Coonawarra and fine Frankland River tannins produces a complex, layered wine showing classic varietal characters.  A standout vintage – this wine will continue to evolve and reward in the cellar.

Winemakers notes:

Intense deep garnet core in colour with soft crimson red rim. The lifted aromas of cassis, mint, bay leaf and black olive are complemented by well integrated French oak and hints of cinnamon spice.

The palate is rounded and rich, with primary fruit in abundance, lots of sweet fruit with flavours of mint, rich blackcurrant, dark fruit and chocolate wrapped into very fine integrated oak, fine silky tannins balanced with freshness and weight of primary fruits. Cellar up to 10 years.
