Leconfield Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

"Since it's first release in 1977 the Leconfield Cabernet has been a classic Coonawarra go-to and the flagship of the brand. Every year they aim to produce a Cabernet Sauvignon displaying both depth and elegance where oak complexes and enhances the fruit but is not allowed to dominate.

""The oak classy and tighter grained here (18 months all French; 43% new). The fruit more restrained: currant mulch bitter chocolate and truffle. The structural bow of greater tension. This is linear precise and long. Very good. Again the pH and tannin management far better than in the past. This will reward mid-term cellaring. It is good to see that Coonawarra or at least at this address is finding swagger again... 93pts"" (Halliday)."
