Wakefield 2004 St. Andrews Cabernet Sauvignon (Clare Valley)

Country: Australia / St. Andrews
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon South Australia
Winery: Wakefield / Clare Valley

This top Cabernet bottling from Taylors has been a consistent favorite over the last few vintages, and the 2004 continues the string. It’s complex, bringing scents of mint, coffee, cassis and tobacco all to the dance, and matching that complexity with weight and richness. The tannins are a bit astringent right now, so try it from 2010-2020.
