About Penny Hill Cabernet Sauvignon
Penny Hill Cabernet Sauvignon opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe blackcurrant and dark cherry, layered with subtle notes of cedar and dried herbs. On the palate, the wine is structured and generous, delivering waves of blackberry compote, plum, and a touch of dark chocolate, supported by well-integrated oak and firm but polished tannins. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of mocha and a hint of tobacco leaf.
