Cradle of Hills Maritime Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (12 Bottles) McLaren Vale, SA

Cradle of Hills Maritime Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 sits in the same vein as the later Maritime Cabernet Shiraz/Cabernet releases, a Sellicks Hill red built around coastal Cabernet fruit, fine tannin and savoury freshness rather than brute force. The palate style, as described for the Maritime Cabernet line, is medium‑bodied, racy and savoury: bright red and black fruits, racy spice, delicate Cabernet tannins and fresh acidity, framed by well‑judged French oak that adds mocha and cedar without overwhelming the fruit.
