Leeuwin Estate, Prelude Cabernet Sauvignon, Western Australia
Tasting note:
Oof. Complex kit. In a good way. Dark, concentrated blackcurrants, blueberry and cherry. A floral lift of lavender and violet. Further layers reveal black cardamom, clove and bay. Then there’s a zippy acidity on the palate, pencil shaving-like tannins. A real ripper.
Producer:
The Leeuwin family has been making wine here since 1979, establishing a reputation as one of the pre-eminent wineries in Western - and indeed the rest of - Australia.
Vintage: 2019
ABV: 14%
