Huntington Estate Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2021
I'd almost convinced myself I'd seen this before, nearly confusing it with the similarly named and liveried Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon (here).
Here the Cabernet Sauvignon dominant version is redolent of cool autumnal mornings, touch of earthy-headiness lingering, veering to graphite notes.
The palate a contrast to that, with a deep black fruited heart, of blackcurrant and damson. Hint of black tea, pepper, twist of licorice - a complex mix of elements jostling and jockeying for position.
Tannins at turns coarse, with a glossiness in tandem, moving through a finish of some length. Still at a youthful juncture - look to see these elements ease into each other with some additional time. 93+
