2008 First Eleven (XI) Cabernet Sauvignon
The First XI honours the legends of Australian Cricket. Those elite sportsmen who have achieved the distinction of representing their country at the highest level-The best of the best. To honour the standard, the First XI is only produced in exceptional years. This 2015 release is the ninth since the inaugural 2000 vintage.
So, when you next enjoy a glass of the First XI, toast the legends for whom this wine is named. Those who have made it to the top of their craft.
This wine has a deep red appearance with a brick red edge. Aromas of black cherry, plum and brandy fruit cake combined with deep tobacco notes and hints of olive leaf and leather. A plump mid palate, with rich fruit cake and sticky dried fruit flavours. Supple and silky smooth tannins with tobacco and sweet fruit flavours to finish.
