TN: Devils Lair 9th Chamber Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Post by Waiters Friend »

G'day

I've had a couple of these in the cellar for some years now. Decanted a couple of hours before service.

Deep purple in colour. Concentrated nose of sweet blackberries, blackcurrants, cassis, dark chocolate, vanilla, eucalypt, and a little raisin.

A rich palate with primary and developed black fruits (add black plumsto the previous list), cleansing acid, and mildly prickly tannins (well integrated). Medium to full bodied, and the 14.5% alcohol is evident towards the long finish.

Probably at its peak now - no signs of decline and no rush to open the next bottle.

Cheers
Allan

Don't know this wine - it seems to be their premium single-vineyard red, only made occasionally. Seems you can't buy wines via their website though - a bit backward these days?
