Wakefield 2009 St. Andrews Single Vineyard Release Cabernet Sauvignon (Clare Valley)

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

The Clare Valley is an underappreciated source of fine Cabernet Sauvignon, and this is one of the region’s standard bearers. Minty notes add a dose of Australia to this slightly austere wine, which also boasts dark chocolate, cassis and tobacco. Drink 2015–2025.
