Reschke Cellar Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 from Reschke in Coonawarra is a premium, terra rossa cabernet that nails the balance of power, elegance and age‑worthy structure – a proper cellar pick. Deep red‑black in colour, this Cellar Reserve Cabernet 2020 opens with blackberries in syrup, mulberry, raspberry and cassis, layered with rosemary stem, dried gum leaf, blackcurrant build‑up, dark chocolate, spicy leather and toasty oak.

The palate is medium‑to‑full bodied with glossy richness, offering fresh‑picked black cherry and plum skin over a swathe of lively acidity and fine‑grained, deep tannins. Tobacco pouch, cedar, pencil lead and subtle spice sit in support, while concentrated blackberry, cocoa and allspice notes round out a complex, long, balanced finish that will see it drinking beautifully now and evolving gracefully for at least another decade. With Gold medals and multiple 94–95‑point scores from Halliday, Wine Orbit and others, it squarely sits in top‑tier Coonawarra cabernet territory.

Food‑wise, Reschke Cellar Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 is superb with grilled ribeye, lamb rack, beef brisket, venison or mushroom risotto and aged cloth‑bound cheddar. The wine’s concentrated blackcurrant and plum, cocoa, mint/tobacco nuance and firm yet polished tannins love rich, umami‑laden dishes, making it an ideal centrepiece for special‑occasion roasts or a serious steak night at home.
