3 Drops Cabernets 2022, Great Southern, AUD $29
Cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc blend, made for the proprietors by Rob Diletti, one of Western Australia’s gun winemakers.
Medium ruby red with a purple glint in the light. Blackberry, bramble and pencil shavings on the nose. Medium in body with bright black fruits and ample layers of complexity, tomato leaf, graphite and pencil shavings all shining through. Tannins have presence and bring a tension and drive to the palate, carrying it long and drying the end nicely. (Screwcap)
