Hamelin Bay Five Ashes Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 really impressed Aussie wine writer Winsor Dobbin. He wrote … “Some wines have a certain something about them – and this stood out from the crowd in a recent tasting. It’s a delightful mature cabernet (with 4% of merlot) from vineyards in the far south of Margaret River with a blackberry/earthy nose leading to a plush palate with dark fruit and attractive savoury notes. The 30% new French oak has been seamlessly integrated in a wine that blossoms when served with rich meat dishes. Don’t linger; this full-bodied red is drinking beautifully right now.”
