d'Arenberg The High Trellis Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

This vineyard was planted in the 19th century, and received its nickname as it was the first in the region to be trained above knee height. Over the past four decades, Cabernet Sauvignon from the High Trellis vineyard has been released under the d'Arenberg label to consistent critical acclaim, and won the coveted Jimmy Watson trophy at the 1969 Melbourne Wine Show.

There's a cool climate vibe to this wine (thanks to the cooler 2017 vintage). It's medium bodied and acid driven, with loads of black currant, black berry and liquorice flavours. The finish is long, and supple, with plenty of spice to boot!
