The 2022 Mountadam Five-Fifty Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold yet elegant Eden Valley Cabernet Sauvignon crafted from high-altitude vineyards at 550 metres above sea level, delivering classic cool-climate structure and depth. The nose is rich and expressive, showing cassis, blackcurrant and dark cherry layered with dried herbs, cedar, tobacco and subtle savoury spice.
On the palate, it is full-bodied with concentrated dark berry fruit, supple tannins and balanced acidity, supported by gentle French oak influence that adds texture and complexity. Notes of bay leaf, cassia bark and forest floor lead into a long, smooth and savoury finish. The style is polished and approachable, combining richness with freshness and structure.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent value premium Cabernet Sauvignon for customers who enjoy classic Australian Cabernet styles with dark fruit, spice and savoury complexity. Perfect with grilled steak, roast lamb, BBQ meats or aged cheddar. Drink now or cellar over the next 5–8 years for added depth and development.
