The Wine Men of Gotham Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 pays homage to the legendary "Wise Men of Gotham," known for their clever simplicity. Crafted in South Australia during the warmer-than-average 2020 vintage, this wine benefits from generous fruit flavors, intense color, and distinctive varietal character. The 2020 vintage conditions produced rich and concentrated grapes, which resulted in a wine that bursts with blackcurrant, blackberry, and cherry flavors, complemented by a hint of vanilla oak.

On the palate, the wine is smooth and silky, showcasing an elegant texture with a long, balanced finish. This Cabernet Sauvignon offers a wonderful combination of fruit-forward freshness and subtle oak influence. The rich, velvety tannins and bright fruit flavors make it a versatile pairing option for a range of dishes, including grilled meats, roast lamb, beef Wellington, and hard cheeses like cheddar and gruyere. The wine also pairs beautifully with hearty stews or a charcuterie platter, making it an excellent choice for both casual meals and more formal dinners.

The Wine Men of Gotham Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 was produced by Gotham Wines, under the expert direction of Peter Pollard, a former Peter Lehmann winemaker. His commitment to quality winemaking ensures that this wine stands out for its clarity of fruit expression and refined structure. It has earned a 90-point rating from Australian Wine Showcase Magazine, further solidifying its status as an exceptional example of South Australian craftsmanship.

This wine is crafted to be enjoyed now, but its structure and balance suggest it will evolve beautifully over the next few years, making it an excellent addition to your wine collection.
