Shirvington Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 750ml, McLaren Vale
The 2006 Shirvington Cabernet Sauvignon continues the tradition of super premium wines produced in Mclaren Vale. This vintage displays dark fruits, a sweet spiciness and has a fine structure that will impress lovers of Cabernet Sauvignon.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 92 pts - The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon was 100% barrel-fermented and aged for 12 months in 75% new oak, 80% American, 20% French. Opaque purple-colored, it exhibits a fragrant, expressive perfume of toasty oak, vanilla, spice box, black currant, and blackberry liqueur. This is followed by a racy Cabernet, slightly lean, with intense black fruit flavors, good depth and concentration, and enough structure to support 8-10 years of development in the cellar. - Oct 2007
