Matured in 1-4 year old French and American oak barrels for 18 months. Impenetrable inky black heart with a vibrant dark red black hue. Ripe blackberry and liquorice aromas escape from the glass followed by some cassis, red currant, light earth and spicy vanillin cedar notes. Juicy blackberry, liquorice and red currant fruits fill the mouth.
Cabernet sauvignon 80% Malbec 20%. Agincourt Cabernet consistently exhibits classic cabernet characters of cassis and dark berry fruits, along with a unique leafy herbaceousness. The Malbec plays its part with inky robust plum and black cherry and ample tannins to provide beautifully balanced structure. 96 Points, James Halliday Wine Companion.
