Balgownie Estate Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Marrying elegance with structure, this finely balanced cabernet has a dusty, faintly floral but still quite closed fragrance of small red and black berries, polished cedary oak, dried herbs and baked earth. Underpinned by a tightly integrated spine of powdery, drying tannins, its plush and deeply flavoured palate of small berries, dark plums and chocolatey oak culminates in an earthy, faintly meaty and savoury finish, leaving lingering notes of mint and menthol.
