Yalumba The Menzies Cabernet Sauvignon is an iconic Australian red wine, grown in the fertile soils of Coonawarra. It delivers a complex yet elegant palate with a tight structure and pronounced tannins. It’s enveloped in captivating flavours of dark fruit, spiced plum, and a hint of premium oak. The nose is intense with both dark berry and subtle eucalyptus notes. This wine has an excellent texture and an enduring finish. Evolution in a bottle, it improves fabulously with age. Enjoy it with rich meat dishes or robust cheeses to fully appreciate its opulence. A superior choice for those seeking full-bodied wines.

Tasting Notes

Full depth in colour with a plum red hue. The bouquet leads with violet and lilac floral notes to the tangy counterpoint of seaspray and pepper. The palate is rich and powerful; red fruits and dark chocolate on a robust tannin framework. The finish is long, complex and well worth contemplating
