  • 2016 The Coppermine Road Cabernet, McLaren Vale, d'Arenberg

    2016 er en årgang med høj intensitet samt tæt og rank struktur. Vilde krydderurter, mint, cassis, peberfrugt, cedertræ, jordtone og lidt røg. Garvesyren fra de supermodne druer er ret fremtrædende som ung, så lagring vil lønne sig. "Sit back and be patient" siger Chester Osborne selv. Årgangens stil er mere i retning af Cabernet-domineret, stor Bordeaux fra venstre bred end den foregående var.

    Firmly tannic and a touch herbal, d'Arenberg's 2016 The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon is a touch disappointing in the context of the lineup. Right now, it reveals hints of bell pepper on the nose, alongside notes of mint, cedar and cassis. It's medium to full-bodied, firm and linear on the palate, with a bit of excess astringency on the finish. Will another five years of cellaring turn things around? It should be better, but it will never be a rich, hedonistic offering.

    Archetypical McLaren Vale cabernet - full-bodied, richly flavored with currants and cassis, warm, spicy and determined tannins. It's a powerhouse. It's of a style.

    Basket pressed, racked to new and used Frenche oak, bottled unfined and unfiltered. Last year I used the word substantial and it was the first word to spring to mind here. This really does put a roar into the glass. Iodine, blackcurrant, graphite and peppercorn characters are delivered bold and supple. There's a lake of fruit, a bank of tannin and an even flow between the two. It's quality.

    Very deep-set and ripe blackcurrant and creme de cassis aromas here with a deep, tarry edge, as well as eucalyptus and licorice. The palate is full-bodied and has a very firm, assertive tannin core with density and length.

    Også i denne nye årgang er den et kødfuldt koncentrat af solbær, saft, solskin, egetræ og terroir i McLaren Vale, men stram og knastør og med en lang, kontant garvesyre, der med tørre talenter trækker de små anlæg til druesødme ud af eftersmagen. Den er et orgie af saftig potens og c-vitaminer, men konsekvent tør og derfor kun til mad. Selv i Australien er den enestående.
