Is Finniss River Cabernet Sauvignon a good wine?
What reviewers say
“Great Australian Cabernet Sauvignon a deep ruby color, with purple background. Aromas of black currants, cassis, dense cherry liquor, ripe blackberry, blackberry jam, black plum, smoked plum, prunes, plum confiture, smoke, dark chocolate, balsamic nuances, leather, cedar, smoked tomato, menthol, earthy accents. Wine integrated, round with clear fruity acidity and mature but still strong tannins, great structure. Finish very deep, sophisticated with spicy pepper aftertast.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
The palate has loads of rich blackcurrant fruit yet still retains the varieties renown elegant structural feel. Flavours of subtle bay leaf, cedary tobacco and spice follow. Solidly built but fine grained tannins are for the most part concealed by the wealth of blackcurrant fruit. Excellent depth with a very long blackcurrant, cedary cigar box, subtle bay leaf and spice aftertaste.
