Description
Coonawarra is one of those special places in Australia that seem to make my knees weak. Wines that I grew up on and give me a sense of friendship and security, the moment I smell one. And this Jacaranda Ridge makes me feel like I am meeting an old friend. Exceptional single parcel, single block Cabernet Sauvignon from the Northern Coonawarra. A dense and elegant Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon showcasing traditional regional characters of fine tannin and blackberry leaf, but also a darker, brooding quality unique to the vineyard from which the grapes were sourced. The balance and poise of this wine, along with the ample cassis and dark berry fruit flavour, will see this age well for decades to come. Awarded Gold by James Halliday, further support of the quality in the bottle.
Smell: primarily, classic Cabernet Sauvignon aromas of blackberry leaf, give way to hints of darker berry fruits. Subsequent notes of French oak, savoury leather and spice enhance the curiosity within.
Tastes: a focussed wine displaying youthful primary fruit flavours of cassis and blackberry on the mid-palate. The tight tannin structure and balanced acidity, drive a palate of excellent length and clarity. Influences of French oak in the form of toasted cedar notes are apparent but restrained. The perfect partner for a rack of lamb.
