Note di degustazione
This is a big and mouth-filling wine with masses of tannins and rich fruit. Full body, dark-blueberry character and a long, flavorful finish. Tannin driven, this needs a lot of time to come around. Try after 2022.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate is a wild, savory wine that expresses all of the depth and intense, saline minerality that is such a signature of the best Coombsville wines. Sage, lavender, smoke, crushed rocks, menthol, wild flowers, chalk and red cherry jam build in the glass as the 2016 shows off its personality. The 2016 is a towering, statuesque wine of the very highest level. Don't miss it!
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate is profoundly scented of Black Forest cake, blackcurrant cordial and blueberry compote with touches of baking spices, fragrant earth, tobacco leaf and wild thyme. The medium to full-bodied palate is so vibrant and energetic with a firm, ripe, grainy frame and oodles of freshness, finishing long and mineral tinged. 500 cases produced.
Yet another highlight in this range, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate possesses tremendous richness and power from start to finish. There is no shortage of personality or character in this beautifully sculpted Coombsville Cabernet. Lavender, smoke, licorice and tobacco add the closing layers of nuance.
