A striking Cabernet from renowed Coonawarra winery Rymill. The palate displays an intense fresh fruit sweetness with blackcurrant, cherry and notes of chocolate and mint, which is balanced by a round velvety mouth feel and a medium body. Perfect for current drinking.

The wine shows blackcurrant, cherries, lavender and violet aromas along with varietal, brambly earthy herbaceous characters.On the palate the wine shows dark plum and cherry fruit, savoury cocoa and earthy spice and subtle woody herbs- bay and thyme. It is full flavoured with chewy yet fine tannins and a lingering finish. The fruit was fermented on skins for eight days before being pressed and transferred to barrel for 18 months maturation.

The Parker Coonawarra Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is made in a riper, more generous style to its peers, yet with enough restraint to display the distinct varietal and regional characteristics. Offerings of ripe blackberry and damson plums, wafts of warm earth, iodine, mint and black olives. The palate shows a lot of restraint and freshness, fuller bodied not big though with determined tannins. A solid performer not just a backup singer.
