The 2022 The Flying Winemaker Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon, crafted to showcase the region's renowned elegance and structure. Fermented in stainless steel before 12 months of maturation in French oak, it is made with minimal intervention to preserve varietal purity and regional character. The nose is rich and inviting with aromas of blackberry, plum and blackcurrant, complemented by notes of violet, eucalyptus, liquorice and subtle cedar spice.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine-grained tannins, bright acidity and excellent balance. Flavours of dark berries, cassis and black cherry are layered with hints of dark chocolate, tobacco and spice, leading to a long, smooth and structured finish. The restrained oak influence enhances the fruit while adding depth and complexity, making it an approachable Cabernet with excellent ageing potential.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those seeking a polished Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon with classic regional character and outstanding value. Pair it with grilled rib-eye, roast lamb, beef Wellington or aged cheddar. Enjoy now after a short decant, or cellar for 6–10 years to develop greater savoury complexity and finesse.
