Leconfield Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Superb opaque black purple colour with deep dark purple black hue. Expressive aromas of ripe blackcurrant interspersed with mulberry arise from the glass followed by some cedary tobacco, light dark chocolate and spice. Medium to full bodied the palate has classical Cabernet Sauvignon structure with an elegant tight mouthfeel and flavours of blackcurrant and mulberry over some cedar, light tobacco and spice. Dry finish with assertive but fine grained tannins. Aftertaste of blackcurrant, cedar, light cigar box and spice.

Sydney Hamilton purchased Leconfield in 1974, having worked in the family wine business for over 30 years he eventually sold the winery to his nephew in 81. Richard has continued producing fantastic south austrlian wines.
