JJ Hahn Homestead Cabernet Sauvignon

In the right hands, Barossa Cabernet can be every bit as compelling as the region’s famed Shiraz. The Homestead is a fine example, brimming with varietal character—cassis, dark chocolate, ripe plum, and a hint of prune—lifted by subtle edges of mint and fresh herbs. A savoury backbone of tight-knit French oak frames the palate, delivering depth, structure, and a refined, enduring finish.

93 points Halliday Wine Companion - Western Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon matured in French and American oak. Deep crimson with aromas of deep blackberry, blackcurrant and black cherry with hints of fine spice, cassis, earth, licorice, dried herbs, cedar and vanillin. Plush fruit flows on the palate with ripe fruit, compact fine tannins and a seam of fresh acidity driving the wine along nicely.
