Skuttlebutt Cabernet 2017
Skuttlebutt is a nautical term for the source of fresh drinking water on a sailing ship where people gather to catch up on the gossip and goings-on. To reflect the nature of this everyday social gathering, they create these wines as the perfect excuse to gather and Skuttlebutt with friends.
Skuttlebutt Cabernet 2017 vintage is a dark red colour with purple hues. The nose is rich and enticing. There are aromas of cherries, dark mulberries, plums and slight hints of vanilla. The palate is soft and subtle with flavours of red fruits plus hints of cherry and raspberry. Powdery tannins impart a gentle and elegant grip with fresh acidity and a pure red fruit drive.
