Hickinbotham Trueman Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 6pack 14% 750ml
This is the most homogenized, smoothly-assimilated Cabernet in recent years from Hickinbotham, reminiscent of those made by Stephen Hickinbotham in the early ‘eighties. While its aromas of bergamot and blueberry have yet to lock in and settle, the palate’s already there: fine, fresh and strapping. It’s an elegant, savory wine now, but will smooth out and flesh up to memorable opulence with a decade or two in the cellar.
EXPERT REVIEWS
Marcus Ellis
95 Pointsout of 100.
From block 208, contour planted in '73; destemmed and some lightly crushed, with 21 days on skins; matured in 100% new French oak for 15 months. This is showing some maturity but still has fruit-forward notes and a lifted perfume, with tobacco, green peppercorns, tomato leaf and bay, along with Worcestershire sauce, crème de cassis, blackberry and currants. Tannins are still impactful, with more time, no doubt, bringing even more rewards.
