94 Points Deep mulberry purple hue on first pour. Initial aromas of oak-derived pencil shavings, leather with hints of green capsicum and tobacco swirl and morph on breathing. Ripe tannins, crisp acid and a warming glycerol glide carry those generous varietal components to a long finish. This medal-worthy Ross Hill 'Pinnacle Series' Cabernet Sauvignon 2024 shows restrained elegance and will reward some cellaring. Region: Orange, NSW Price: $50 Winery website Gilbert Labour
