WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The 10th Anniversary Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a special bottling of fruit that is hand-picked from the Centa Vineyard Reserve Block and Cross Creek Vineyard Home Block, showcasing the depth, complexity and intrigue the Gibbs Estate has to offer. A truly special wine from a remarkable vintage, exhibiting power and density without excessive weight.
Vibrant, refined, and expressive. Displaying beautiful purity of fruit; this wine is made from the oldest vines on our Estate Vineyards, some of which are closing in on 40 years. The nose is lively with sweet spice, boysenberry, walnut, and sage that compliment a body full of succulent black cherry, dark fruits, glossy fine tannins and lingering notes of dried herbs, cocoa and iron. Pure and polished with an impressive finish, we recommend laying this down for years to come.
TASTING NOTES:
Rich, dark-fruited red with notes of spices, walnuts, nutmeg and bark. Full-bodied with intense, succulent fruit character and ripe, glossy tannins. Lingering and spicy. Drink or hold.
