Hugh Hamilton The Villain Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Liquorice and black jelly bean, black and red fruit, spicy oak and tobacco. Medium to full bodied, grainy tannin and savoury tobacco and black olive flavours, slightly too tangy acidity, and a pretty long finish with a kind of dried rose perfume. Good stuff. Has a little bit of X-factor in the mix. Drink: 2016-2024. Score – 92. (Gary Walsh, winefront.com.au, Aug. 9, 2016)
