Product Description
Decanter World Wide Awards 2022 ReviewRated 95
GOLD MEDAL
Lovely, elegant nose - an inviting mix of restrained blackcurrants and cassis with a hint of menthol, leather and newly sawn wood. A dense, weighty palate with good acidity and grippy tannins. Subtle black fruits linger pleasantly. Lovely structure and good freshness. Intriguing all round.
Wine Tasting Notes
The deep purple-ruby in the glass, this Smith & Hook Reserve Cabernet is fragrant and beautifully defined on the nose with aromas of macerated dark cherries, rich cassis, and candied violets which are further complexed with plum, dried herbs and cedar forest floor accents. The palate is youthful and vibrant, bursting with black and blue fruits, plum flavors, along with notes of warm fig and dark chocolate shavings. This wine is creamy textured, with seamlessly integrated fine tannins and brisk minerality that brings together all the layers in a long succulent finish.
