Cabernet Sauvignon Cloudburst 2021

Sage, bay leaf, salt bush, currant and a verdant lilt that is subtle, detailed and quintessentially Margaret River cabernet. Cassis, graphite, kelp and a smear of tapenade. A mid-weighted expression from a vintage that is on the cooler side, albeit, with no shortage of class or refinement. I almost prefer vintages like this, as they sort the wheat from the chaff while offering a savory drinkability over oodles of fruit. Moreover, they service greater interest for the drinker than uniformly effortless years. An excellent 2021. Drinkable now, but best from 2028. Screw cap.
