Happs Three Hills Charles Andreas 2016

50% cabernet, 25% petit verdot, 17% malbec, 8% merlot. Lifestyles of the rich and sturdy. This is a red wine with a keen sense of authority, its blackcurrant and malt notes infused with violet, peppermint and fresh leather. It’s as svelte as it is powerful; it’s full-bodied but plush. Tannin doesn’t step on the fruit’s toes, and there’s plenty to see this through to a long life. Drink by: 2040. Special Value. Score – 96. (Campbell Mattinson, winecompanion.com.au, Aug. 1, 2019)
