Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Washington State, USA
Cabernet Sauvignon | 12.5% ABV
We are lucky to present this one-of-a-kind wine from Domaine Magdalena, a partner of our Hedges Family Estate.
On the nose you may notice plum, green peppercorn, cassis and some Rhone-style spice. The palate is accessible, with green peppercorn, cassis, and plum. Not necessarily what you’d expect from a new world Cab, but in a refreshing way.
Enjoy with meats including beef, lamb and pork, but would also work well with chicken or other savoury dishes.
Best served at 15 – 18°C.
Convention is not vineyard-owner-winemaker Maggie's aim. Having grown up in California, and after marrying Christophe Hedges and moving to Columbia Valley in Washington State, Maggie set about launching her own domaine, right across the road from the Hedges Family Estate. The result is nothing short of counter-revolutionary.
Domaine Magdalena is a five acre estate within the Red Mountain AVA in Washington State. Life started out farming grape vines from 2005. In 2014 Maggie decided to start producing her own wine from the vineyard…. 2018 is only the fourth vintage. Every vintage tells its own story. "Domaine Magdalena tells a story every year and we are eager to share it with fellow enthusiasts."
