The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet in color and comes prancing out of the glass with cheery notions of baked black cherries, black raspberries, blackcurrant cordial and chocolate box plus wafts of dried mint, wilted roses, Ceylon tea and fallen leaves. The full-bodied palate is wonderfully expressive and balanced, chock-full of perfumed black fruit and a velvety texture, finishing long and lively. This is drinking wonderfully now!
