Tasting Notes
Wakefield Wines St Andrews Cabernet Sauvignon 2018. This Cabernet Sauvignon showcases remarkable precision and power, showcasing the benefits of the Clare Valley's terroir. The warm days and cool nights, along with the ancient Terra Rossa soils, contribute to the wine's complexity and elegance. The 2018 vintage was warm and dry, producing wines with ripe blackcurrant characters and fine tannins. The wine underwent 18 months of maturation in French oak barrels, enhancing its structure and depth. The aromatics of cassis, mint, and dried herbs give way to a dense palate of blackcurrant, graphite, and tobacco. The tannins are firm yet polished, giving the wine a statuesque profile.
