This 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon, presented as a ‘Vintage Reserve’, is likely to offer a classic profile. On the nose, expect rich aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, and dark cherry, intertwined with notes of cedar, tobacco, and perhaps a hint of green bell pepper, indicative of Cabernet’s varietal character. Subtle vanilla or spice notes might suggest oak aging. The palate will be full-bodied with firm, structured tannins and medium-high acidity, providing a good backbone. Flavors of blackberry, plum, and black cherry will dominate, complemented by savory elements, earth, and a touch of mocha or dark chocolate from potential oak influence. The finish should be long and persistent, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruit and fine tannins.
