Tasting notes
Deep garnet-purple coloured, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer to Kalon Vineyard reveals notes of blackberry preserves and blueberry compote with chocolate box, star anise, sandalwood, dried meat and black loam nuances. The full-bodied palate is earthy and muscular, with a solid frame of ripe, grainy tannins and just enough freshness to support the taut earthy and savoury flavours, finishing on a lingering spicy note.
