St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 $55.99 (4.5 stars)

21 June 2017By Yvonne
St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 $55.99 (4.5 stars)Yvonne2017-06-21T10:46:47+12:00

Here’s a gorgeously glossy, eucalypt and herb-scented little star that’s classic Coonawarra through and through.  Blackcurrant, white pepper, smoky, cedar notes, loads of florals and a burst of black olive makes itself known on the finish.  It’s a masculine, complex example that’s leathery, earthy and definitely drinking nicely now.
