Heartland Wines, Cabernet Sauvignon, Langhorne Creek, 2016

Tobacco, blackberry and cassis with sweet slightly melted, minty edges of after-dinner mints. There’s as hint of dusty earth and light violets. The palate is a modern take on cabernet for sure with a pure fruit start: pastille and spice. Soft, floury tannins and lighter cassis focus with vanillan tones to finish. Easy does it.
