Seppeltsfield EC4 Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2018
A smart, sophisticated and savoury expression of this classic blend. A dusty, mineral fragrance of cassis, dark plums and cedary oak overlies fiery earthy notes. ItÕs exceptionally long and stylish, with a charming core of vivacious berry/plum fruit that reveals a hint of prune as it finishes without a hint of jamminess. Supported by a fine, slatey backbone, it finishes with balance, remarkable persistence and savoury aspects. Value? Off the charts.

Seppeltsfield
The outstanding living monument to the heritage of Australian wine, with access to a vast estate, a fully refurbished gravity-fed red wine cellar and a fortified barrel hall that is the envy of all who visit it. Seppeltsfield has released an impressive collection of well-priced regional wine to augment its unrivalled collection of fortifieds. Recent vintages have seen some exploration into sub-regional blends of shiraz, plus a revival of some old classic Seppelt labels. Fiona Donald's winemaking team brings astonishing ability and experience to the table. Here's a wine brand I really appreciate.
