1838 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 Dozen

Tasting Notes: The 1838 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a bold yet approachable expression of South Australian Cabernet, offering exceptional value without compromising quality. Deep intense purple in the glass with a vibrant red rim, this wine opens with lifted aromas of ripe red and black berries, accented by subtle hints of blueberry, coffee, dark chocolate, and a touch of aniseed for added complexity. On the palate, it’s all about vibrant fruit flavour – juicy dark berries, ripe plum, and a soft thread of oak spice that rounds out the profile. The tannins are smooth and gentle, creating a plush mouthfeel and a pleasing, easy-drinking finish. This is a classic, fruit-forward Cabernet style made for everyday enjoyment, but with a depth that punches well above its price point. Accolades for this vintage include a 93 Point Rating & Gold Medal from Wine Showcase Magazine, as well as a 91 Point Rating by Sam Kim, Wine Orbit – a testament to its consistent quality and drinkability. A top-value red perfect for casual dining, this wine is ideally paired with roast lamb stuffed with garlic and rosemary, grilled sausages, beef ragu pasta, or even a mushroom and lentil pie for a hearty vegetarian match. Enjoy now or over the next few years while the fruit is vibrant and lively.
