Atze's Corner Rare Black Cabernet Sauvignon

Introducing the Rare Black Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, a true gem that has been worth the three-year wait. As the first vintage in years, this wine is the epitome of exceptional quality and showcases the Barossa Valley's potential for world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. With only two barrels produced, this rare wine is in limited supply, so we recommend securing your bottle early.

Tasting Notes:
Deep, inky, and full of power, the Rare Black Cabernet Sauvignon offers a complex bouquet of blackberry, cassis, and dark plum, intertwined with subtle hints of mint, roasted red capsicum, and cedar. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied, with rich layers of dark chocolate, coffee bean, and spicy French oak, balanced by fine-grained tannins and a touch of earthiness. The finish is elegantly long, with lingering notes of ripe fruit and a whisper of spice, a true expression of the Barossa Cabernet.
