Vegan Cabernet Sauvignon Wines
When it comes to Cabernet Sauvignon, we’re very spoiled for choice in Australia. Here in SA (where WD is based), we have some of the world’s very best Cabernet coming from the South East and Coonawarra regions and, more recently, some lovely bold and herbaceous offerings from Clare Valley and rich and tannic versions from McLaren Vale. WA is no shrinking violet either, consistently contributing world-class Cabernet and our brethren in the east of the country also produce very serious, high-quality Cabernet. There’s a whole lotta Cab Sav going on in Oz, and that is a very good thing.
What's the difference between Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon?
It’s a bit like the difference between perfume and a brick.
Pinot is lighter in colour and body, more delic ...

Winemaker Hamish MacGowan has had a few careers, Cattle musterering in the NT, wine merchant in the UK, winemaker in Bordeaux, winemaker in Moldova, and winemaker in Vic.

- Dowie Doole The Architect Single Vineyard Cabernet 2021Special Price $85.00 Regular Price $90.00Only tiny quantities are made of this wine, which is the product of the finest of Dowie Doole's A-grade Cabernet fruit from each vintage. '21 being an incredible vintage has elevated this even further. The previous vintage picked up 96 points from Kim Brebach who said, "Decades ago, I had the privilege of tasting a group of Barolos and Barbarescos made by Giovanni Gaia. These wines had layers of deep flavour, ranging from smoked meats and old leather to licorice, gravel dust and tar. The Dowie Doole Architect reminded me of those wines because it had some of those characters, even if the expression was more restrained. Give it time, and I think you’ll be richly rewarded. If the price seems steep, keep in mind that a Barbaresco from Gaia will set you back $600." The '21 is better again than the exceptional 2019 vintage, and represents a barrel selection chosen from only A-grade parcels from the old, dry-grown Blewitt Springs vineyard. There's black fruits, licorice, richness, density and layers. A stunning wine that will live for a very long time Learn More

A grade vines are hand tended, the fruit bunch sorted, open fermented, basket pressed and put into superb French oak for a couple of years. Red fruits, mulberries, bramble, olives, dried herbs are all in the mix. The palate is extremely powerful, textural, intense and long. An exceptional, single vineyard Coonawarra Cab. Learn More
- Kilikanoon Tregea Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2018Special Price $90.00 Regular Price $96.00A varietal and regional expression of Clare Valley Cabernet with piercing clarity of fruit, which is to say, an absolute delight. Violets, blackberries, plum, sage, bay leaf, mint, liquorice, curlicues of French oak and fine, waxy, supple tannins. Off script though, because this is massive - a huge mouthful - and yet expressive, somehow elegant, with a fluidity of movement and visibility of detail which belie the hulking muscularity. Imagine a director firing Nureyev as the male lead in Swan Lake because Chewbacca auditioned better. Then pour another glass. Learn More

- Showblock Cellar Reserve Black Label Cabernet 2019Special Price $80.00 Regular Price $85.00About as big as you can make a Cabernet and still have it taste like a Cab. Cassis, cigar box, cedar, black fruits, spice, cocoa powder and more on the go here. Definitely worth decanting, as this peels back the layers of tannin a little and pushes the fruit forwards. Pretty awesome! Learn More
