Intrinsic Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 | 750 ml.

JS92 JamesSuckling.com Friday, July 5, 2019

"A wine that delivers a very fragrant, floral edge and has a deeply integrated array of violet and red plums, as well as tomato paste. Half the wine is aged for nine months on skins and this has really meshed the tannins nicely. A blend of 96% cabernet sauvignon and 4% cabernet franc. Drink now." (92 pts.)

RP89 Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate 21st May 2020

"The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon begins with a dark-fruited core on the nose, with hints of dust and smoke. Medium to full-bodied, a subtly sweet and smoky tone lingers in the mouth with structured tannins across the mid-palate. The complex mineral core is showcased on the lingering and precise finish. It’s a delightful bottle of Cabernet, and it’s keenly priced. As a wine reviewer, I focus on what is inside the bottle, not what’s on the label. But in this instance, the label is absolutely mesmerizing and unforgettable. You’ll want to pick this one up and try it for yourself." (89 pts.)
