Clairault Halley & Lex Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Clairault Halley & Lex Cabernet Sauvignon is noted for its rich dark fruit and earthy undertones, with hints of mocha and chocolate. While some appreciate its sophisticated herbal blend and gentle oak notes, others mention a slight imbalance with alcohol. Its soft tannins and long finish are well-regarded, making it a cost-effective choice for everyday consumption.

Deep garnet in hue, this Cabernet Sauvignon exudes a bouquet of cassis, black cherry, and a hint of eucalyptus, underscored by subtle notes of cedar and forest floor leaf. The palate is a harmonious interplay of ripe black fruits and finely grained tannins, offering a full-bodied structure that is both robust and elegant. A vein of refreshing acidity provides balance, while nuances of dark chocolate and graphite emerge on the lengthy finish. This wine exemplifies the quintessential Margaret River style, showcasing both power and finesse, and promises further complexity with careful cellaring.
