The Cigar 2018 is a lovely bright, fresh Coonawarra Cabernet. Vibrant, deep magenta in colour. The aromatics are rich with blue and black fruits, notes of spice and warm, comforting aromas of cedar, strawberry compote and sandalwood. The palate is expressive with blackcurrant, plum and clove spice, melding with dark chocolate and ripe fruits. The wine has a beautiful structure with fine tannins and balanced acidity ensuring longevity.

This St Hugo classic has aged into a seamlessly smooth masterpiece, perfectly balancing its signature power with a new, velvety elegance. The bold dark fruits and floral scents have softened into a rich, rounded flavor, while the once-strong tannins are now silky and easy-drinking. It is a sophisticated, deeply satisfying red that feels luxurious on the palate a premium Coonawarra Cabernet that is performing at its absolute peak right now.
