Tasting note

McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon is expected to show blackcurrant, blackberry and a hint of eucalyptus-like herb, giving the 2015 Serpico a vivid aromatic profile. Dense fruit should meet ample tannin and refreshing acidity on the palate, creating a firm center rather than a soft, simple sweep. The listed peak extends through 2033 and the window to 2041; expect the finish to lengthen with dark fruit, spice and a gently drying edge.
