FIVE STARS 96/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

With the Taylor family's dedication to crafting fine Australian wines spanning five decades and three generations, Taylors is undeniably one of Australia's classic, most iconic brands. Having produced wine in the Clare Valley since the late 1950s, the family crafts wines that celebrate the region's unique characteristics.

This elegant cabernet offers notes of blackcurrant, mint and tomato leaf, laid over well-intergrated silky tannins. With a trophy cabinet that's chock full to bursting, the accolades speak for themselves. Well worth the investment for any fine wine enthusiast.

Tasting Notes

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "The captivating bouquet shows cassis, subtle tobacco, vanilla and toasty oak aromas, followed by an impressively weighted palate that's delectably ripe and plush. It's robust and solid as well as velvety and seductive with a prolonged structured finish. Varietally pure with hedonistic complexity, making it immensely appealing. At its best: now to 2040."

The winery writes "The wine has an enticing, lifted aroma of ripe blackcurrants, choc mint, subtle spice and a hint of dried tomato leaf. The overall nose character is one of richness and elegance. On the palate it is a very luscious, rich wine with ripe blackcurrant characters, along with hints of crushed violet petals and subtle oak characters of cedar and fresh tobacco. There is an understated power to the wine, with layers of complexity building across the palate and then finishing elegantly with long, fine tannins. It is a generous, mouth filling wine yet retains poise and the elegance of great Cabernet Sauvignon."
