Best’s impressive range of Great Western Shiraz has long taken centre stage with their Cabernets sitting in the shadows. Showcasing the regions elegance and cool climate structure the Cabernet possesses dense rich fruit and is capable of cellaring for up to 20 years. At under $25 it consistently delivers terrific value.
Deep black totally opaque core with a bright dark red hue. A mixture of red currant, mulberry and bay leaf scents possess plenty of aromatic power. Vanillin cedar, light tobacco and subtle spicy black olive notes follow on. Rich with superb intensity of fruit but not heavy, the palate has a delicious flavour profile of ripe red currants, mulberries and subtle rhubarb fruits which oversee a back drop of well integrated cedary tobacco characters, traces of dusty earth and infusions of bay leaf. Seamless, polished tannins have good underlying structure. A fleshy, supple mouthfeel only serves to enhance the wines drinkability. Concludes long, highly flavoursome and refined.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.
