Tasting Notes
Appearance:
Deep garnet with a vivid ruby rim — beautifully youthful for its age, showing concentration and finesse.
Aroma:
A stunning bouquet of blackcurrant, violets, mulberry and red plum, layered with tobacco leaf, graphite, cedar, cigar box and subtle earthy spice.
The aromatics alone mark this as an elite Cabernet.
Palate:
Structured, pure and impeccably balanced.
The palate delivers precision and power without excess, showcasing the hallmarks of top-tier Wilyabrup Cabernet.
Expect layers of:
-
blackcurrant, mulberry and blueberry
-
dark chocolate and savoury spice
-
cedar, bay leaf and pencil lead
-
fine, tightly woven tannins
The texture is luxurious yet taut, with beautiful drive and refined acidity giving the wine extraordinary line and shape.
Finish:
Long, persistent and composed — black fruit, graphite and delicate oak spice unfurl gracefully.
A finish that speaks of pedigree, maturity and serious ageing potential.
