THIS week Taste samples some cabernet sauvignon from South Australia and discovers why it is the region’s top drop Oxford Landing Cabernet Shiraz 2011, S Australia (£7.99, Majestic) more than delivers, with its lovely black nose of forest fruits, a splash of shiraz to spice up the berrylicious, soft juicy fruit flavours.
Aussie giant Wolf Blass offer both tremendous value and quality with their Yellow Label tier and Wolf Blass Yellow Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, S Australia (£9.99, Tesco). Full flavoured and structured with a rich mouthfeel, a plummy, sweet nose, and blackcurrant, leather, mocha and spice, this wine is rarely left on the shelves.
