2005 Harewood Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Harewood Estate winemaker James Kellie, who previously worked at Howard Park, clearly demonstrates the potential of the Great Southern region for outstanding cool climate wines. James Halliday agrees ranking Harewood Estate 5 stars in his 2008 Australian Wine Companion describing its wines as being '...of the highest calibre'.

Opaque black crimson colour with black crimson mauve hue. Excellent lifted nose of spice, blackcurrant and violet delivering a perfumed sniff. Excellent varietal palate flavours – blackcurrant, cedar and cassis, followed by a hint of light new leather. Fine grained tannins, perfect balance. Very long aftertaste of spice and cassis.
