Celebrating Excellence: Taylors Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 Wins Best of Class Trophy at the 2025 East Meets West Competition
If you love bold, fruit-forward reds that deliver world-class quality for just $16.99, the 2023 Taylors Clare Valley Limestone Coast Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is your next must-try. Hailing from South Australia, this gem just clinched the Best of Class Trophy at the 2025 East Meets West Wine Competition in California, proving it can compete with the world’s finest wines.
A Winning Streak That's Hard to Ignore
This latest accolade caps off an extraordinary three-month whirlwind of international triumphs for the 2023 vintage. In a feat that's turning heads worldwide, the wine scooped up five Gold Medals from top competitions spanning the USA, Spain, Argentina, and South Africa – including a standout Gold at the Michelangelo International Wine & Spirits Awards.
Taylors Wines, a family-owned powerhouse in the Clare Valley since their first vineyard plantings in 1969, has a legacy of award-winning excellence. Their debut vintage back in 1973 snagged Gold Medals across every major Australian show – and over 50 years later, they're still raising the bar with estate-grown gems like this Cabernet.
What Makes This Cabernet a Standout?
Crafted from premium grapes in the sun-drenched Clare Valley & Limestone Coast terroir, this 2023 release bursts with aromas of blackcurrant, spice, and eucalyptus. After maturation for up to 10 months in French oak barrels (a mix of 50% two-year-old and the rest three-year-old), it reveals subtle layers of cedar and dark chocolate, balanced by vibrant fruit flavours and a smooth, lingering finish.
Whether you're pairing it with grilled lamb, rich pasta, or a cozy fireside evening, this wine delivers depth and elegance without breaking the bank.
