The 2016 MacDonald Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning release, utilizing 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from vines as old as 60+ years in To Kalon. This downright sexy Cabernet is absolutely singing in its youth as it shows incredible richness and complexity with a vibrant backbone. It offrs characteristis of crème de cassis and ripe dark currants with sage, violets, tar, black tea, anise, mocha and lighter wet stone accents. On the palate this has it all, seamless, concentrated and intense, with an incredible sense of purity, this absolutely incredible Cabernet continues to impress as is it gracefully envelops the palate leading up to the gorgeous, voluptous finish. This an absolutely sensational wine from Alex and Graeme MacDonald, which is utterly delicious now, yet is ultimately an age-worthy wine that should thrive in the cellar for many years to come.
