Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
LUCKY DRAW |
Deep intense purple colour with an intense, spicy, juicy, plummy-cherry purée nose with some some cedary notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, slightly spicy, juicy, plum-cherry-blueberry purée flavours with a lingering, refreshing, cedary finish. Here is a big, juicy, ripe, crowd-pleasing, ready-to-drink Cabernet Sauvignon blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Malbec that spent 12 months in French oak of which 30% was new. It has 14.5% alcohol and 7 g/L residual sugar with lot number L21054 on the lower part of the glass bottle. |

TASTING NOTE: This wine is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, but it gains much of its distinctive quality from the inclusion of some Malbec. Comprising fruit from prime sites in Napa, Sonoma, Lodi and Paso Robles, it has generous depth and structure, a silky character, blueberry, cherry, cocoa, and deftly managed oak spice. A barbecue wine through and through, it will also serve you well alongside prime roast. |
