The 2023 Hay Shed Hill Block 2 Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic Margaret River Cabernet, sourced from some of the estate’s oldest vines planted in 1975 on gravelly loam soils, delivering depth, structure and regional purity. It reflects the region’s Bordeaux-like climate, known for producing elegant yet powerful Cabernet Sauvignon with balance and finesse. The nose is intense and layered, showing blackcurrant, blackberry and dark plum alongside notes of cedar, bay leaf, tobacco and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a firm yet refined structure, offering concentrated dark fruit, fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity that drives a long, composed finish. The style is polished and structured, combining richness with elegance and excellent ageing potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a standout Margaret River Cabernet for customers seeking a classic, structured red with real pedigree. It’s ideal for those who enjoy Bordeaux-style wines with Australian purity. Drink now with decanting or cellar for 8–12 years. Perfect with steak, roast lamb, beef dishes or hard cheeses.
