Thomas William cabernet sauvignon 2024

This is a pretty serious cabernet. It comes from old vines in the Yallingup area, a region that John Gladstones has always felt was most likely to produce the power of Bordeaux in structure and style. This is certainly that, but it's got a lovely finesse and elegance about it. Loads of blackcurrant, bay leaf and a little black olive. The fruit is bright, vibrant and very much alive in the glass. It has structure, with those firmish oyster shell tannins and some nice oak influence. An excellent example of quality cabernet from this warmish year.
