Federalist Cabernet Sauvignon Bourbon Barrel Aged (75cl, 14.5%)

A full-bodied red wine made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Lodi, California. It is aged for six months in American oak and then four months in charred bourbon barrels. The wine is bottled at approximately 14.5% ABV in a 750ml format. The dual-barrel ageing gives a smoky, vanilla-laced character alongside dark fruit. Dark berry fruit, blackberry and plum lead the aroma, with smoky vanilla and toasted coconut. The palate is plush and jammy, with black plum, black cherry, dark chocolate, peppery spice and caramelised oak. The finish is long and smooth, with minty chocolate, fig and lingering smoky vanilla.
