Stuart Ranges Cabernet Sauvignon 2022, Coonawarra
Deep crimson with a purple core. Cassis and blackberry show clearly, with dark plum and a cool mint note, plus cedar and a light earthy edge. Medium to full-bodied and quite linear. The fruit is concentrated and clean, held by firm tannins and bright acidity that give it real drive. Oak sits in the background, and a savoury note keeps it from feeling one-dimensional. It finishes with length, blackcurrant and chalky tannins.
Vino Masters Score: 94/100 ★★★★★ A focused Coonawarra Cabernet with tight dark fruit, good structure and a classic regional stamp.
