Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, medium acidity, dry
Yalumba's Coonawarra Cabernet, from the single Menzies vineyard on the region's narrow strip of terra rossa over limestone — the soil that made Coonawarra's name for Cabernet.

Full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannin and the cool-climate acidity that gives Coonawarra Cabernet its length and definition. A structured style built to be cellared rather than drunk on release.
