Tahbilk 2018 'Eric Stevens Purbrick' Cabernet Sauvignon
Enjoy Now to 2038 Plus | 14.5% Alcohol
The 2018 vintage delivered bright and true-to-varietal reds with concentration and depth of flavour no better illustrated than with this ‘Eric Stevens Purbrick’ Cabernet. Rich, black-currant and dark fruits, eucalypt notes and earthy, gamey characters immediately engage on the nose and palate where Asian five spice and savoury hints add further complexity. A truly sublime ‘best of vintage’ release that will reward those cellaring out to 2038 and beyond.
Tahbilk 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon
Enjoy Now to 2034/2037 | 14.0% Alcohol
Vibrant purple colour in the glass. Typical herbal characters shine through on the nose; eucalyptus, spearmint and cocoa nibs alongside delicate blueberry, blackberry and subtle rose florals. Intense fruit immediately hits the palate; fresh blueberries, wild berries and blackberries. Tannins are tight … feeling a little green and youthful ... however this will even out with time.
The acidity is atypical of the Cabernet Sauvignon varietal. Herbaceous edges with tomato and blackberry leaf. The wine’s structure has all the elements to age well in bottle. Drink now and then age 12 years and reap the benefits.
