This belter of a Cabernet is not only from the "5-star Pepper Tree estate" (James Halliday) but also Australia's "extraordinary, 96-point 2005 vintage" (Robert Parker).

It is crafted by gifted Jim Chatto from Cabernet hotspot Wrattonbully, between famed Coonawarra and Padthaway, where it shares the same distinctive red soil (terra rossa) this noble grape loves.

Deep garnet with attractive blackcurrant and cassis aromas and subtle tobacco leaf notes - the hallmark of the finest Cabernet. 12 months patient ageing in barrel has produced a smooth, succulent and richly complex style.
