The Senses of
'The Clare Red' Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

The Clare Valley was settled in the 1950s by Irish, English, Polish and German immigrants. These first settlers planted vines which flourished, with the Clare Valley gaining a reputation for producing the finest wines.

Sight
Deep dark claret
Smell
Inviting and welcoming. Blending at its best. Plum, blackberry, boysenberry, blackcurrant. Underlying characters of cedar, boot polish, roasted fennel.
Taste
Uncomplicated drinking pleasure. Exuberance of youth. Blueberry, spearmint, raspberry. Refinement of age. Leather, clove, cinnamon. Well rounded integrated tannins. Length and persistence of flavour.
Time
A wine created to be enjoyed upon release with a view to short term cellaring.
