In tasting the Hickinbotham wines, a common thread is apparent; they have beautiful aromatics, delicious purity of fruit and are exceptionally well balanced. All are aged in French Oak barrels, adding polish and finesse. This is a great debut for this new winemaking team, which has crafted wines which are compelling and complex.
The flagship wine is a 50/50 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz from the very best parcels with vines more than 40 years old. The bouquet is loaded with black and red fruits, cedar and a pleasant earthiness. The palate is complex and powerful with impressive balance and length, displaying gorgeous blackberry and currant fruit with subtle notes of licorice and savory spices. This wine showcases a combination of power and finesse and impresses with its’ depth and purity of fruit. Stunning!
