A classic full-bodied expression of Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, The Menzies has all the hallmarks of a great Cabernet wine: intense varietal expression of berries and sea spray, held together by taut grape and oak tannin.
Dark cherry red with a crimson hue. The bouquet is elegant and inviting, notes of cedar and licorice combine with rich, ripe cassis, violets and the quintessential Coonawarra “sea spray” note. The palate opens with a burst of cassis and mocha. It is structural, yet generous, dark and brooding with restraint and the promise of enjoyment for years to come. The tannins are sublime, giving an insight to the ageability of this wine, yet in its youth, it is enjoyable as an elegant full-bodied red wine.
