The 2017 Leasingham Classic Clare Cabernet Sauvignon is a single vineyard wine resulting from of a careful selection of hand-picked fruit, berry sorted, open fermented and hand plunged before being basket pressed and matured in fine grained French oak.

Colour - Deep red with crimson hues.

Bouquet - Lifted aromas of red currants, mulberry and raspberry with black olive, liquorice and choc mint tones.

Palate - The palate is complex and long with vibrant red and black currants, mulberry and plum fruit flavours with undertones of bay leaf, black olive and dark chocolate.

94 Points - Wine Companion

"Open-fermented with wild yeast, aged for 16 months in French oak. Unusually approachable for a young Classic Clare, presenting as a wine that doesn't even seem to require cellaring. It's rich and actually quite soft, although there's no questioning the depth here, with layers of flavours offering blackcurrant, mint chocolate and toasty oak framed by ripe, gentle tannin."
