Product Notes

Xanadu Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium wine that offers an unparalleled experience of the best of Margaret River, Western Australia. Made from carefully selected grapes that are handpicked and ginormously concentrated, the wine offers an intense aroma of blackcurrant, red and black cherries. The deep purple color and the full-bodied tannin are distinct indications of the quality of the wine. The complex layers of dark chocolate, cigar spice, and subtle oak flavors add more depth and character to the palate, making it a wine to cherish and savor. This wine is perfect with a hearty beef dish or a rich cheese platter.

Tasting Notes

COLOUR - Deep red with purple hues. NOSE - This elegant wine offers a vibrant bouquet of blackcurrant, mulberries and rose petal framed by fine French oak, interwoven with hints of cocoa and bay leaf in the background. PALATE - Medium-full bodied, the palate offers a core of blue and black forest fruits, cassis, and dark choc-mint characters. The wine has a wonderful depth of flavour with intricate layers of inky fruits underpinned by fine grained, gravelly tannins. Quintessential Margaret River Cabernet; energetic, complex and refined culminating in a persistent berry fruit finish.
