About Levantine Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 750mL
Levantine Hill Cabernet Sauvignon from the Yarra Valley is a wine of considerable depth and refinement. On the nose, it opens with an alluring bouquet of dark cassis, ripe blackberry, and crushed violets, underpinned by cedar and graphite minerality that speaks to the cool-climate origins of the Yarra Valley. The palate is structured and generous, delivering layers of blackcurrant, dark plum, and a hint of dried herbs, seamlessly woven with well-integrated French oak that imparts notes of dark chocolate and subtle vanilla. The tannins are fine-grained and polished, a hallmark of the estate's meticulous viticulture and winemaking philosophy. The wine shows excellent balance between fruit concentration and natural acidity, lending it both immediacy and impressive cellaring potential.
