99 Points - Ray Jordan
Xanadu has established itself as one of Margaret River's most impressive Cabernet makers, with quality significantly rising over the past decade. The Reserve range represents the best of what Xanadu are able to produce in a given vintage.
This 2020 Xanadu Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is nothing short of spectacular, opening with intense and complex aromatics of ripe mulberries, blackcurrant pastilles and dark plums leaping out of the glass. The generous palate is packed full of dark forest fruits, cassis and chocolate. Powerful yet refined in structure with fleshy fruits complimented by dense velvety tannins this is another epic rendition of Margaret River Cabernet.
A wine that's receiving plenty of high praise and already in high demand, our limited stocks will sell out quickly.
“99 Points. There have been some wonderful 2020 cabernets from Margaret River but none better than this. What a glorious statement of the region and a great vintage. Highly perfumed aromas of mulberry, dark chocolate and blackcurrant with a little plum and dried herb edging in. The palate is full-bodied with immense power. Black fruit, dark plum and some wild berry action with oak that has been almost lyrically laid. Bright and vital with a lithe expressiveness that is pure joy. $120. Cellar: 20 years"- Ray Jordan, rayjordanwine.com.au.
