"Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2001 First Growth Cabernet Sauvignon shows off a lovely core of vibrant black fruits and Christmas cake highlighted by nuances of chocolate, eucalypt, dried roses and tea. Full-bodied, rich and seductive in the mouth, it is drinking well now and has a long finish."

Renowned for powerful, richly fruited Shiraz, most famously from the Barossa Valley, alongside age-worthy Cabernet and cool-climate whites. A warm climate and old, ungrafted vines produce wines of generosity and depth.
The world's most planted premium red grape, yielding deeply colored, tannic and structured wines with cassis, cedar and graphite notes. Firm tannins and acidity make it exceptionally age-worthy, whether as a varietal or the backbone of a Bordeaux blend.
Produces plush, supple, fruit-forward reds with plum and chocolate notes. Softer and earlier-maturing than Cabernet, it adds flesh and roundness to blends and stars in Right Bank Bordeaux.
