Bec Hardy McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
93pts Wine Pilot, 2025
A warmer climate style of Cabernet, chockful of flavour and representing cracking value, the fruit for this wine hails from two of the region’s vineyards. Fermentation was in stainless steel before maturation in a mix of new French oak hogsheads (10%) and older French oak (90%). A purple magenta hue, the nose gives up notes of dried herbs, bay leaves, black cherries, blackberries, mulberries, licorice and leather. Seamless in style, there is good focus and length here, along with bright acidity and a lingering finish. This is delicious drinking and will continue to be over the next decade. 93.
Bec Hardy Limestone Coast Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
92 points - Wine Spectator, 2022
"The core of this rich and succulent red oozes with ripe huckleberry and marionberry flavors that show hints of sage, dried bay leaf, cigar box and spices, with plenty of white pepper and fresh cracked black pepper on the finish. The tannins are firm and muscular, but never get in the way of the rich flavors. Drink now through 2033."
Family Crest SA Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
92pts - Wine Pilot, 2024
"Dark maroon hue, the nose offers aromas of tobacco leaves, blackberries, soy, licorice, bergamot, chocolate and coffee grinds. Focused, with bright acidity running the full length of the journey, there are satiny tannins and the wine offers good length. This is still very much in the youthful camp and it certainly promises more for the future. Very attractive and should remain so for the next ten to twelve years."
Pertaringa 'Lakeside' SA (McLaren Vale) Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
91pts - Wine Pilot, 2025
From a couple of the team’s favourite McLaren Vale vineyards, this appealing Cabernet Sauvignon spent eight months maturing in older French oak.
The colour here is a deep maroon. The nose gives us aromas of dried herbs, bay leaves, plums, black fruits, chocolate, mulberries and licorice. It is a wine of medium length and good acidity with plenty of grip. An enjoyable warmer climate Cabernet with bold flavours to the fore. Good buying. It can be enjoyed any time over the next six to eight years.
