Timo Mayer 2022 Yarra Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet from a north-facing slope on Hans and Anna Orth's vineyard in Coldstream. A combination of crushed fruit, whole berries and whole bunches. Matured in hogsheads (10% new). Fragrant with cranberries, boysenberries, plum skins, a little olive tapenade and well-judged florals from the whole bunches. Medium bodied, this juicy red is neither forced nor extracted and the sinewy, fine and long tannins are already in perfect harmony with the fruit. A delicious and atypical cabernet. - James Halliday

Our Tasting Notes: Fresh and spicy, this cab shows notes of violet, tobacco, watermelon, and red plum.  Medium bodied with an almost Alpine character with its bright acidity and firm but not obtrusive tannins, this wine sings with flavors of black pepper, watermelon, red cherry, and crunchy red fruit with a long fresh finish.  This is a cab for pinot lovers
