From Leeuwin Estate in Western Australia’s Margaret River, the Prelude Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a refined blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot from vineyards on gravelly soils.

The nose reveals blackcurrant, blood plum, and licorice, with hints of bay leaf and graphite. On the palate, it’s medium-to-full-bodied and lush, with finely woven tannins, vibrant acidity, and flavors of boysenberry, dried herbs, and a long, polished finish.
