The 2022 Heartland Spice Trader Cabernet Sauvignon is a generous Langhorne Creek Cabernet Sauvignon that showcases the region's ability to produce wines with both richness and structure. Aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and dark plum are complemented by notes of cedar, dried herbs, dark chocolate and subtle spice. True to the Spice Trader name, the wine combines classic Cabernet character with an inviting layer of savoury complexity.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine tannins, balanced acidity and a smooth, approachable texture. Flavours of cassis, blackberry and ripe plum are supported by hints of cedar, tobacco leaf and gentle spice, creating a wine with depth and excellent drinkability. Subtle oak influence adds structure and complexity, while the finish is long, polished and fruit-driven.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic Cabernet Sauvignon for those who enjoy generous dark fruit flavours balanced by classic varietal structure. Ready to enjoy now, it will continue to develop over the next 5–8 years. Pair with grilled steaks, roast lamb, beef burgers, slow-cooked beef dishes or mature cheddar cheese for an easy and rewarding food match.
