2006 John Glaetzer John's Blend No.33 Cabernet Sauvignon

John’s Blend No. 33 has had 40 months maturation in an equal spilt of new French and American oak hogsheads. Totally opaque black dark crimson red colour with very deep dark red hue. The nose displays lifted aromas of blackcurrant, liquorice, vanillin oak, confectionary and spice. Full bodied the palate is filled with ripe lush fruit and possesses a velvet like mouthfeel. Mouthfilling flavours of blackcurrant and liquorice are followed by some mocha and vanillin spice like characters on the back palate. Velvet smooth tannins with long aftertaste of blackcurrant, dark chocolate, cedar and spice.
Cellar 3-4 years (2014-2015).
Alc 14.5%
