Berton Vineyards, Reserve, Coonawarra, South Australia, 2009

Tasting: Coonawarra & Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon

Quite tannic on the palate. Sharp blueberries, big flavours but quite dry.

Tasting: Coonawarra & Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon

Very deep. Closed nose, slightly meaty. Full, robust palate, muscular dominant tannins, extracted, punchy structure, finishes with real bite. Has the structure to age.

Tasting: Coonawarra & Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon

Youthful ruby, showing a touch of evolution on the nose behind the dried mint and garrigue herb fragrance while the palate has a mint and balsamic undertone to the bright and juicy blackcurrant fruit which finishes with quite powerful mouthcoating tannins and a savoury clean twist of acidity.
