The Regions Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Expect from us a red over 14% alcohol as we are not excited by the flavours of low alcohol reds.

Glug ‘The Escapee’ Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
$14.60In a district like the Barossa Valley the long summer never ends and grapes can be left hanging well into April or May and you can watch the berries shrivel in the heat.

We prefer drinking wines when younger though this wine will hand around in a good cellar for a long time.
