2013 Larkmead Cabernet Sauvignon Dr. Olmo

100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Distinctive aromatics of fresh herbs, crushed black rock, and grilled meats roll into flavours of tobacco, tar and a touch of anise. Ultra-fine and persistent tannins and just enough acidity to balance. There is nice freshness here, even with such a dark character, and the wine stays fluid and light on the palate. While oak has clearly been used for this wine it helps to open and show the fruit rather than cloak it. (ECB)
