Best's Great Western Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
Dozen Price: $275.88
RRP: $27.00
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon from Best's has is garnet to medium red. Scented with layers of red fruit, mulberry, blackcurrant and leafy spice. Integrated supple tannins with dark cherry, cassis, confection and cinnamon spice.
"If this wine auditioned for a role in the film adaptation of 'Remains of the Day' it would get the part in a heartbeat. It's just so exquisitely well mannered. Ultrafine tannin, perfectly ripened fruit, the line of acidity placed just so. Even the oak wraps smokily around the herb notes, as if to ensure that they don't appear too loud. This mid-weight cabernet would make the perfect butler to the finest of meals."

Winery & Vintage Info
A wetter growing season with balanced healthy yields meant the vines ripened slowly and evenly. Sufficient water supply ensured the grapevines remained in good health which ensured all the natural acidity was retained at harvest. The fruit was delivered to the winery in optimum condition giving the winemaking team every opportunity to create a varietal Cabernet Sauvignon to proudly stand in the Bests stable.
This youthful wine is a great expression of the variety in Great Western. It is possible to enjoy this wine now with food, but it will soften and gain complexity over the next 5-10 years.
Enjoy with a salt crusted lamb roast, seasonal vegetables and a light red wine sauce. A lighter grazing board with soft cheddar or creamy polenta with pan fried greens like Asparagus and Broccolini.
