Wild Soul Cabernet Sauvignon 2002

I had not heard of this winery until last night, not that I have my finger on the pulse of the Granite Belt, but I suspect like many other people, I just don’t buy or drink much wine from this area. And you thought the Hunter had an image problem! Well the wine was uncorked and revealed aromas of red plums, vanilla, animal hide, dried meat and dried spices. The palate showed red cherries and red plums, leather and creamy oak with a touch of carbon/graphite. Good length and quite tasty. A very nice wine, though not particular Cabernetish in character, and it did taste a little bretty to my palate.
