Stuart McCloskey "Undeniably, Cabernet Sauvignon is my favoured varietal. Perhaps 17-years working in the Bordeaux trade is to blame, nonetheless I still perk-up when a good example arrives at my desk. This has all the vibes of an old-school Château Beychevelle, Talbot, Leoville Barton etc… The bouquet exudes to the sweetest tune of plum, cassis, leather, cedar, mint, violet, sweet tobacco, spice, kirsch, menthol and star anise. Gamey notes develop with more aeration as do the telltale tobacco and saddle leather notes. Utterly intoxicating and it has my unbridled attention. The palate is an absolute charmer – suave, svelte, fleshly, generous, sophisticated and highly addictive. What a beauty… The fruit is ample, succulent and fills every facet of the palate. The tannins are ripe, and the acidity is spot-on. I served her on the ‘cooler’ side and straight from bottle to my glass, which I highly recommend. She’s exuberant in a modest way, but excites the hell out of me. This is exactly why I love my job. I believe I get more joy from wines of this value and drinkability than I do from the hundreds I sample above £50… Keep her cool and she’ll treat you with the same degree of respect. What a girl. I love her… Drink now to 2028+ and perhaps for longer, but I see little point in denying yourself of the pleasure… Served using Zalto Burgundy glassware as it holds the wonderful perfume better than the Bordeaux."
