2019 HOOSEGG Philip Shaw Self Made-Up Man Cabernet Sav Blend, Orange NSW

Deep ruby with garnet hints. Aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, cassis, graphite and dried herbs with five years of bottle development adding tobacco and leather complexity. The palate is medium-full bodied with elegant tannins and excellent length. A Cabernet Sauvignon blend from Philip Shaw's HOOSEGG project — cool-climate Orange at its most expressive.
