Made in a similar style, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon is pure, fresh and focused, with solid black currant, graphite and hints of herbaceous to go with a nicely concentrated, supple and easy-drinking profile on the palate. It too should be consumed over the coming 3-5 years, although it may evolve for longer.
These forward, up-front and delicious efforts are made by Mike Januik and in almost all instances, they represent solid values.
