CRAIGLEE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2020 - red

Style : Savoury & DetailedIntroducing Craiglee, Cabernet Sauvignon - Sunbury, Victoria.What the Carmody family has achieved since it replanted an historic vineyard site in 1976 is as unlikely as it is remarkable. In a largely unheralded region, and surrounded by burgeoning housing estates, it has consistently produced spicy, peppery, medium-weight shiraz of the highest quality and character, in the process establishing itself among the best of the best producers in Australia. Craiglee’s reputation is long-held but, if anything, it continues to rise. CAMPBELL MATTINSONIt’s ripe yet somewhat sinewy with tart fruit, but still comes out super savoury. It’s an unusual cabernet, as in not overtly varietal, just a hint of cassis with crushed herbs, alongside cedary oak, pomegranate and sumac. It hovers around mid-weight with chewy tannins; to enjoy this now, it needs hearty fare. JANE FAULKNER Wine Companion Region: Sunbury, VICTORIAVariety : Cabernet blend ABV: 13.5% Liquor Act 2007.
