Gold Medal - 2024 Sydney Royal Wine Show
A standout winery of South Australia's Langhorne Creek, Lake Breeze has drawn plenty of well deserved acclaim of late, including being named 'Best Value Winery' in the 2022 Halliday Wine Companion.
Long considered one of Australia's most consistent Cabernet producers, the 2022 Lake Breeze Cabernet Sauvignon is another impressive release. Offering plenty of lifted black fruits and violet aromatics on this nose, the palate is flavour packed with loads of blackcurrants, chocolate and blueberry flavours. A wine of effortless power, with a silky texture and impressively long finish, this is again destined to be a hugely popular release.
"Made from 94/5/1% cabernet sauvignon/malbec/petit verdot; 20 months in French oak, 30% new. This delivers strong blackcurrant flavours with cedarwood, spearmint and eucalypt flavours attached. It's well scented, well flavoured and well finished, with unobtrusive tannin and a juiciness all the way through, the latter complemented by well-integrated oak. 92 Points. $28. Drink: 2025 - 2032"- Campbell Mattinson, Halliday Wine Companion.
