2022 Redman Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon

Dense inky black heart with a very deep dark red black hue. Freshly crushed blackcurrant and liquorice aromas elevate their way through the nostrils combining with some mulberry, inky earth, vanillin cedar and mint notes along the way. Still very youthful and inky in its feel the palate is decorated with freshly crushed blackcurrant and liquorice fruits which overlay an earthy back drop of vanillin cedar and infusions of bay leaf. Bright, almost crunchy like acidity in conjunction with muscular tannins lead into a tense, inky finish.
Cellar 6-8 years.
Alc. 14%

Other Reviews…..
This 2022 Cabernet is bold for Coonawarra but still holds its shape admirably. Powerful slaty blackcurrant aromas are lifted by touches of oregano and bay leaf with sweet blackberry in support. Dry, sturdy and strong with a dense core of drying tannins accented by juicy acidity. Generous ripeness but all kept in check nicely with cherry liqueur accents to finish. Drink 2030-2040.
