2017 d'Arenberg The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

Critic tasting note: "The Coppermine Cab comes from low yielding, old vines of a clone almost extinct down under. Despite the cooler vintage, this wine is as massive as ever. It opens with notes of black cherry, black currant, cinnamon, licorice and mint. On the palate, outsized tannins are dry and raspy, flecked with herbs and spices. Luckily there's a good amount of juicy fruit but it's fighting to be seen. Christina Pickard" - 89/100, Wine Enthusiast

The The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 offers aromas of savoury, cedar, cigar box, sage, oregano and ferrous notes eventually through to lifted violets, blackcurrant, boysenberry, mulberry, mint and citrus peel. The palate will similarly start out reasonably tight but will open generously, presenting opulent fruit on the attack, matched with a medium bodied mid palate and complemented and drawn out through ripples of fine, chalky tannins.
