2015 Hickinbotham Trueman
Cabernet Sauvignon grows in ideal conditions on the Hickinbotham Vineyard thanks to the combined influence of elevation, aspect, prevailing winds, weather and ancient soils. The ability to consistently retain expressive and fragrant aromas and obtain deep tannin ripeness with concentrated fresh flavors makes Trueman one of the estate’s most highly regarded wines. Trueman evokes aromas of dark chocolate and blackberry pie with herbal touches of mint, cedar and tobacco come together in the balanced palate that is fine and fresh. An elegant savoury wine that has benefited from some years in the cellar.
