Often overlooked in the Two Hands lineup because it's McLaren Vale Cabernet, the 2019 Sexy Beast Cabernet Sauvignon is a solid example of the variety at a realistic price. Hints of tea-like herbals and floral notes accent cassis on the nose, while the medium-bodied palate is crisp, linear and streamlined, coming to a long, focused finish framed by dusty tannins.

Dense, almost sinewy tannins set the stage for this rustic red, with blueberry and wild blackberry flavors and dark-brewed tea details. Aromatic grace notes of dried rose petal and rosemary add some charm, as does the harmony on the finish.
