Forever Sunday Cabernet 2021
About the wine
A powerful Cabernet with delicious depth
The creation of some wines come about smoothly, and others really push a Winemaker’s abilities. This Cabernet proved to be the latter for Leighton Joy. As one of the 2020 Young Guns of Wine finalists, he rose to the task. Equipment issues meant this wine was given a tonne of extra attention, as Leighton meticulously (and admittedly with high stress levels) nurtured it through its development. His focus paid off with a truly powerful and complex Cabernet.
This has all the classic fruit flavours and layered textures of a Cabernet, but its chewy tannins are what make this drop truly memorable - and ironically, that was the very challenge Leighton was focused on preserving!
The tannins magnificently set up a home for the red cassis, blackcurrant and oak flavours. The end result is a rich, glorious combination. There are also hints of licorice which add a delicious depth and complexity to a lovely, layered red.
