Hamelin Bay Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Description

Leading vintners, the Drake-Brockmans of  Hamelin Bay wines are located in the (cooler) Karridale sub-region, in the south of Margaret River.  The estate is owned by the Drake-Brockman family who have long pioneering roots in the area dating back to early settlement by the Bussell family in 1830.    Margaret River produces Australia’s best Cabernet Sauvignon and here is a refined expression ( southern Margaret River produces cabernets of elegance). Beautiful purity of ripe blackcurrant fruit, tobacco leafiness and more-ish fine grained tannins on an supremely elegant palate.  This is absolutely delicious medium bodied cabernet sauvignon!

James Halliday review 95pts “…. ..this is all about cool-grown elegance; black fruits, spice and cedar aromas lead into a medium bodied palate, where finely strung ripe tannins add a dimension to both texture and structure, without challenging the fruit. To 2023 ”
