2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

Wine Pilot
The Cabernet Sauvignon fruit sourced from the various parcels across CM’s Margaret River vineyards is destemmed and lightly crushed, before fermentation and then maturation in French oak, 30% new, for fourteen months. The wine incorporates 2% Petit Verdot, as well as 1% each of Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
A maroon hue, the immediate impression on the nose is of some rather special blackberry jam notes, supported by bay leaves, chocolate, licorice, raspberries and coffee grinds. This is a luscious and delicious style of Cabernet, with good focus, fine sleek tannins and excellent length. A ten year proposition. There are plenty of Margaret River Cabs at twice the price which struggle to match the quality we have here.
