2022 Lake Breeze Cabernet Sauvignon

Refined, mid weighted Cabernet Sauvignon with Langhorne Creek’s characteristic mintiness.

From 50 year old vines with maturation taking place in French oak barriques for 20 months. Dense inky black core with a dark red black tinged hue. Aromas of blackcurrant and liquorice combine with mint, dusty vanillin cedar and bay leaf notes. Refined in its feel, the mid weighted palate features fleshy blackcurrant and liquorice fruits over a spearmint, dusty vanillin cedar and spice back drop. Slightly grainy tannins lend a mild firmness to the elegant finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 14%

Other Reviews…..
Made from 94/5/1% cabernet sauvignon/malbec/petit verdot; 20 months in French oak, 30% new. This delivers strong blackcurrant flavours with cedarwood, spearmint and eucalypt flavours attached. It's well scented, well flavoured and well finished, with unobtrusive tannin and a juiciness all the way through, the latter complemented by well-integrated oak. Drink by 2032.
