Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, medium acidity, dry
Named for Jack Mann, who made wine at Houghton for fifty-one consecutive vintages and is among the towering figures of Australian winemaking, this is Western Australia's icon Cabernet — released only in seasons judged worthy of the name. Cassis and dark plum with cedar, graphite, violet, dried herb and a leafy Cabernet lift. Full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannin and a long savoury finish. Structured and reserved in youth in the classical manner, and built for the cellar rather than the table on release.
