Lake Breeze Arthurs Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec 2007 Langhorne Creek Region South Australia 750ml x 12

Lake Breeze Arthurs Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec is a  stylish wine that is a tribute to Arthur Follett, who planted the first vines on the family property in the 1880’s. Lake Breeze Arthurs Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec is a blend of 90% Cabernet and 9% Malbec, this wine is truly handcrafted from the vineyard through to the finished product. The grapes were carefully selected and picked at optimum ripeness from the family vineyard on the famous Langhorne Creek ‘flood plain’. Maceration times on skins varied from 9 days through to 21 days, giving the wine both depth and silkiness, whilst also imparting some savoury elements. Lake Breeze Arthurs Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec was aged in 100% French Oak and only the best barrels of the vintage were chosen for the final blend, which was unfined and unfiltered prior to bottling on the estate.The resultant wine shows classic blackcurrant aromas with violets, mint and savoury characters. Lake Breeze Arthurs Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec is full and rich yet still very youthful, with a wonderful intensity and length of flavour. With correct cellaring this wine will drink beautifully over the next 15 years.Awards 95 pts - James Halliday's 2012 Wine Companion -Gold medal - 2010 Australian Small Winemakers Show class 43
