Cape Mentelle's 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts traditional claret-styled notes of cigar box (cedar and tobacco), alongside earth, cola and cassis. It's medium to full-bodied, with a smooth, silky feel on the palate and hints of raspberries and tea on the long, gently tannic finish. Looking at my notes and scores for previous vintages, I can't help but wonder if I'm being too tough on this admittedly excellent wine, or if it's maybe just too elegant for my personal tastes.
