2007 'THE HILL BLOCK' CABERNET

Colour: Medium to deep red with crimson hue.

Aroma: Typical “Hill Block” aromas of blackcurrant, cherry, perfumed violets and cedary/cigar box French oak.

Palate: Rich and ripe, but still elegant with blackcurrant/cherry the main drivers here complimented by some attractive charry oak flavours. The fine tannins and well balanced acid provide structure and length to this stylish Cabernet.

Summary: Displaying all its typical vineyard characteristics this terrific red shows the varietal definition and the complexity we come to expect from The Hill Block. No problem to keep for 7-10 years – most probably longer.
