Oliver's Taranga have a long and distinguished history in the McLaren Vale and are custodians of some of the premier vineyard land in the region. Winemaker Corrina Wright is no stranger to creating powerpack Cabernets. Characteristic aromas of blackcurrant, cigar box and earthy dark fruits lure you in to a blackberry jam palate adorned with chewy tannin and brilliant intensity. Delicious, especially if you have a roast lamb handy.

Palate

Pop a lamb roast in the oven now! Plenty of chewy tannin, black currant, anise, cherry berry and dusty vanillan oak to round out the palate. Chocolate and toasty, plenty of structure and aging potential for those who have the patience to wait!

Rich McLaren Vale cabernet, it's full-bodied, but carries its weight easily. The tannins were never going to be a problem, and the oak was well judged, leaving the great Reynell clone free to speak in its effortlessly pure fashion.
