Robert Stein Mudgee Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 - 12 Bottles

Vineyards and Vintage Conditions
Crafted from vines approximately 49 years old across multiple Mudgee vineyards, the 2022 Cabernet benefited from a balanced growing season. Winter rains supported healthy canopy development, while a warm, dry summer helped the fruit ripen perfectly—with excellent condition and flavour clarity.

Winemaking Process
This Cabernet Sauvignon is a regional blend, gently vinified to showcase vibrant fruit and varietal integrity. It achieves balance and richness through subtle winemaking choices—including thoughtful fermentation and maturation aimed at preserving Mudgee’s signature structure and finesse.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents savoury berry characters tinged with warm spice and subtle chocolate nuances. On the palate, ripe blackberry and cassis meld with earthy undertones. Fine tannins and balanced acidity drive a long, compelling finish that hints at both youthful vigour and early maturity.

Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with grilled rib-eye, braised short ribs, classic beef Wellington, or aged cheddar. Its structure also complements rich, savory dishes like mushroom ragout or slow-roasted lamb shoulder.

Cellaring Potential
Enjoyable now for its accessible fruit, the 2022 Cabernet is also ripe for short- to medium-term cellaring—offering deepening complexity over the next 5–8 years.
