Carmelo Patti Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

A long-time favourite with our customers and those fortunate enough to have experienced Carmelo's generous hospitality first-hand, the '07 Cab Sav is a full-bodied wine with real finesse. If you've never tried one of Carmelo's wines before, this will make for a memorable introduction.

Scents of red and green peppers and woodsmoke fill the nose and continue to unfold on the tongue with dark Autumn fruits. Beautifully-rounded, and with some of the smoothest tannins you'll taste this side of the Equator, it's not as sweet as it's European counterparts, making it a superior pairing to a good steak. This is a truly singular wine.

If ever there was a wine made to be partnered with meat, it's Carmelo Patti's 2007 Cab Sav, a bottle that's just crying out to share a juicy steak with you. Good to drink now or, if you have a far stronger will than us, to cellar up to 2025.
