Very attractive nose with aromas of black cherries, dark plums, blackberries, spice box, leather and peppery notes. On the mouthfeel, medium-full bodied, elegant texture, flavourful, smooth tannins and balanced acidity. The finish is medium length with soft seductive fruit flavours and spices lingering.

This Cabernet from Desert Hill is fully deserving of their Gold medal at the WineAlign National Wine Awards of Canada 2019. I love visiting Desert Hill winery, there is so many beautiful and well produced wines, made in an elegant style I really enjoy, especially their Gamay, Cabernet, Mirage Bordeaux blend and Ursa Major Syrah. This Cabernet is very aromatic, flavourful and stylish wine. Strongly recommended. Cheers my wine friends 🍷
