Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 – Black Market Deal #35577
- Rich, full-bodied
- Margaret River
What do you expect from a reserve Margaret River cabernet? Cassis and mint, cedar and bay leaf... check. Great cellar potential... check. You’d probably expect it to be quite delicious, too. Well, won’t let you down there either as it’s silky smooth with a long long finish. Plus it’s single vineyard fruit crafted by one of our faves in the region. Sorry to say that it’ll fall well short of expectations on price, though. It won’t cost nearly as much as you’d think - less than half, in all likelihood. Sorry about that… not.

Region
Margaret River
Margaret River is as elusive as it is beautiful, such that you really need to visit to truly grasp its haunting beauty. Über-premium Cabernet, Chardonnay and Semillon Sauvignon Blanc blends grow here. 'Margies' only produces 3% of the country's grapes, but commands over 20% of its premium wine market, and hasn't had an off vintage since 2006. You start to realise how often this region is overlooked when you can list brands like Leeuwin, Cape Mentelle, Vasse Felix, and Voyager, not to mention Cullen, Pierro, Moss Wood, and Deep Woods. It's safe to say that it's time for a revisit.
The rules are there ain’t no rules, but here are some foods we think will work pretty well with this wine...
