Deep Woods Estate Reserve cabernet sauvignon 2023

The best fruit from the original Deep Woods Estate and Abbey Vale properties has been brought together to create something special with this Reserve Cabernet from the great '23 vintage. You want cabernet, you'll find it here. Every piece sits together harmoniously and with great poise. The blackcurrant, dark plummy, chocolatey characters on the nose are lifted with a little bay leaf, dark olive, and a subtle graphite character. The palate is a powerhouse, but it's harnessed and presented with real aplomb. It's still tightly held together, but there is fruit richness here that makes it so appealing even now. Definitely a wine for the cellar, but hard to put it down even now.
