Wirra Wirra Cabernet Sauvignon Dead Ringer 2013 |
Deep claret with vibrant red edge. Classical varietal cabernet herbal lift of leaf, herbs and sweet red fruit aromatics. Darker fruit aromas in the background of ripe blackberry and dark cherry and complemented by the rosemary, thyme and cedar that fill the bouquet. Precise structural palate with wonderful length and clarity of fruit flavor.
Generous rich red fruits of blackberry and mulberry together with savory nuances of smoked meats and tilled earth pulled together with fine, yet powerful tannins and mouth-watering acidity. A wine of classic McLaren Vale richness of flavor matched beautifully with the powerful structure and length of the variety. Can cellar for 14-18 years under appropriate cellaring conditions.
Pairs with slow cooked lamb shoulder with pearl onions, young garlic and rosemary.
