An intense fusion of red and purple.A distinctly varietal nose of vibrant blackberry, bay leaf and dark chocolate fruits, coupled with sophisticated graphite oak.Classically structured, full bodied Cabernet, with silky cassis and dark chocolate fruit, finishing with fine grained varietal dry tannins.
Very good crimson-purple hue; Hilltops is equally at home with its shiraz as its cabernet (or vice versa, as here). The wines have a gravitas that subtly commands respect, here with pure cassis/blackcurrant and black olive to the fore. Great value.
