Vasse Felix Filius Cabernet Sauvignon
Mojo In Full Colour Cabernet Sauvignon
Ripe blackberry and cedar-boxy goodness on the nose. The palate follows with ribena jubey-ness with hints of spicy clove framed by soft grapithe like tannins. Fragrant, blackcurrant and supple. Perfect with rich & hearty dishes, as it tends to brighten them. You can never fail with the classic pairing of good old grilled steak, chips and cabernet. South Australia's first vineyards were established in the 1830's. Enjoying a wide range of climates including the cool temperatures of the Adelaide Hills, to the hot summer weather of the Barossa Valley, South Australia is arguably Australia's most diverse wine producing state.It is from these wonderfully diverse regions that winemaker Marty O'Flaherty selects the best varietals to produce Mojo wines. Marty's resounding philosophy is "wine should tell a story about the terroir in which it's grown, needing lots of love but minimal handling by allowing the growers to do what they do best."
Howard Park Miamup Cabernet Sauvignon
This beautiful wine displays an attractive ruby red colour in a glass. The well balanced bouquet emits medium intensity fragrances of blackberry, dried herbs and earth. It offers coffee, toasted oak and vanilla characters towards the end. The nose smoothly makes way for a lush palate, filled with flavours of juicy forest fruits and soft vanilla, leading to savoury notes. Together with palate coating tannins, these characters culminate in a cocoa and coffee dominated finish.
d'Arenberg High Trellis Cabernet Sauvignon
Planted in the late 19th century, the High Trellis vineyard was the first d'Arenberg vineyard to be trained above knee height. For the past four decades, a Cabernet Sauvignon has been produced from the vineyard to critical acclaim, even winning the Jimmy Watson trophy in 1969. Something that d'Arry reminds current winemaker, and son, Chester about often!
Parker Coonawarra Estate Interloper Cabernet Malbec
Paxton Cabernet Sauvignon
Another excellent Cabernet from one of the modern day pioneers of organic farming in McLaren Vale, and it's even better if it's decanted before serving.Deep purple. Dark fruits, confectionary and exotic spices. Generous with intense varietal flavours of blackberry, blackcurrant, cassis and mulberry , hints of bay leaf and cedar adding complexity. Youthful with fine tannins and fresh acidity.
Sticks Cabernet Sauvignon
Harvested from the estates E block as well as from Upper Ngumby Vineyard, the fruit was immediately destemmed and crushed into static fermenters, prior to inoculation. Acholic fermentation followed, after which the juice was kept on skins for about 3 weeks and matured for 13 months in oak barrels. This Cabernet Sauvignon shows an alcohol level of 13%, exhibiting a bright crimson red colour with purple hues along the edges. Attractive aromas of blackcurrants, leaves, violets and earthy notes flow from the nose, with the supple and rounded palate featuring fresh flavours of dark chocolate, bramble and blackberry. This elegant wine is fit for consumption upon release, also having a cellaring potential of 3 to 5 years so that its flavours and structure can enhance further. Foods like Asian BBQ lamb ribs, Beef Tenderloins, meatballs and grilled steaks taste marvellous with this delicious wine.
Schild Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
This is seriously good Cabernet from the Barossa Valley. Displaying blackcurrants and plums with a hint of cigar box and soft supple velvety tannins.
