Graham Beck Coffeestone Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Alluring nuances of cedarwood and cigarbox combined with concentrated dark berry fruit and iodine scents on the nose. Cassis, mulberry and spices on the palate. A full bodied, firmly structured wine with concentrated fruit, a balanced mouthfeel and a fresh after-palate typical to the Firgrove terroir from which the grapes derive.
