The Drumborg Vineyard was established in 1964, and the 1997 Cabernet, whilst from a mature vineyard, demonstrates the difficulties that Drumborg has in ripening late maturing varietals. Very deep crimson, brick red colour, with brick red hue. Aroma of cedar, cigar box, plum and spice, followed by that menacing vegetal leaf note, which is a signature of unripe Cabernet. On the palate, the leafy, vegetal characteristics persist, over a background of cedar and cigar box. Fine grained, soft tannins, followed by leafy vegetal aftertaste.
