TASTING NOTE:

Cooler years in McLaren Vale always lead to incredibly expressive and highly varietal Cabernets. The High Trellis is no exception with an abundance of blackcurrant, violets and minty notes leaping from the glass. Beautiful bright purple fruits dominate the palate, countered by typical Cabernet characters such as red capsicum skin and fresh mint. The wine feels quite linear at this stage of its development and the combination of fruit and fine chalky tannins seems to go on and on endlessly. A wine that can be savoured now or allowed to develop for the next five to 10 years.
