Comments by Keith Mugford Winemaker
If we were lucky enough to be able to order up our growing seasons, we'd go to that web page and click on 2017-18 just about every time, although we'd probably hesitate over 2000-01 for a moment or two. It would be a tough choice deciding which of the two was better.
The fundamental quality of the wines we make, from any variety, is entirely dependent on how well the grapes ripened, and the 2018 growing season is one of the very best.
This is one of the more ethereal Cabernet Sauvignons we have released. It combines both freshness, with the attendant perfumes of raspberries, roses and violets, and ripeness, featuring classic blueberry and red currant aromas, all courtesy of the terrific growing season. Behind these are the typical varietal complexities produced by long term barrel age including tar, wax, cedar, chocolate, mixed spices and tobacco. They all combine to give a volume seen only in the great years.
Comprising Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc & Petit Verdot
Can a cabernet be any finer, beter structured, more engaging?
This gloriously composed wine shows creme de cassis, spicy osk, subtle cigar, game and rich floral aromas on the nose, leading to an immensely concentrated palate offfering exceptional depth and drive. Offering waves of refined texture and delicious flavors, classically structured by loads of fine tannins, finishing seductively long and gratifying, At its best: 2028-2058

Intense, dense cabernet sauvignon with ripe cassis, blueberry, violet, black berry, wood-smoke and spicy French oak flavors. A sumptuous, almost decadent wine that is built for the long-haul but is dangerously accessible now. Incredibly concentrated 02 APR 2021 Drink 2021–2039
