Leaconfield 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon PlonkOz04

Bottled in both Stelvin and cork, the bouquet is dusty tobacco over good-quality ripe fruit. A typical Coonawarra Cabernet, its predominantly savoury but it does have a layered, subtle under-pinning sweetness which adds excellent complexity. There is also some minor herbal influences, tobacco, savoury red current and milk chocolate flavours. Medium-weight the consistency is firm and the complexity diverse. A lighter style worthy of consideration, it certainly holds interest and is rated as Recommended with *** for value, it should peak around 2008+.
