Tasting Notes:

A classic Cabernet in every sense. The nose, allowed time to open evolves from mushroom, olive and salami in to more typical purple fruits, blackcurrant and violets, backed by ripples of freshly torn mint, sage and oregano. A rich, but chiselled palate follows, framed by layers of long, chalky tannins. This sleek, seamless wine has an unmistakeable air of class. Enticing in youth with a promise of greater depth and elegance to reward careful, patient cellaring.


Technical:

The best parcels of wine that make up the Coppermine Road Cabernet mostly come from a rare and nearly extinct extremely low-yielding clone which is characterized by its violet and anise perfume, concentration and great acidity. The Coppermine Road is vinified, as are all d’Arenberg reds, through the gentle Demoisy crusher, then headed down open fermentation, followed by basket pressing by the ‘Coq’ and ‘Bromley and Tregoning’ 19th century presses into predominantly new and first use French oak barriques for 22 months maturation before blending and bottling at d’Arenberg. We use the age-old process of foot –treading, which means the cap of skins on the fermenting juice are broken down by (wader-clad) feet to ensure the maximum flavour and colour from the skins is extracted. The Coppermine Road Cabernet will most definitely benefit from a good stay in the bottle, and may very well throw a harmless deposit as fining and filtration have been kept to a minimum.

Accolades & Awards:

92 Points, The Wine Front 

"There's a sweetness to the fruit. This tips clearly into redcurrant territory. A wealth of tannin carves a wide swathe through the wine but the pour of curranty, slightly soupy, fruit creates the dominant impression. Cedary oak adds to the sweet impression. A general cabernet dustiness lingers about the edges. One thing is certain: it will live and mature in the bottle for a very long time."


91 Points James Halliday Wine Companion 

"Matured in French oak (7% new) for 18 months. Very good colour; a full-bodied cabernet with tannins filling the saddlebags on both sides of the palate; slightly adrift from the supple d''Arenberg style, but may come back into better balance."


91 Points, Wine Enthusiast Magazine 

"D'Arenberg's Coppermine Cabernets are often tannic and austere upon release, so be warned should you decide to open one in the next year or two. The aromas and flavors are classic this year, seamlessly marrying cassis and cedar, but finishing dry, astringent and firm."
