Zonte’s Footstep 2008 Avalon Tree Single Site Cabernet Sauvignon (Langhorne Creek)

Country: Australia / Avalon Tree Single Site
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon South Australia
Winery: Zonte’s Footstep / Langhorne Creek

Features charred and herbal overtones, but otherwise pleasant cherry fruit and a weightiness borne of moderately high alcohol (14%). The fruit fades a bit quickly on the finish, leaving some drying tannins behind, so serve with rare beef or lamb.
