O’Leary Walker Cabernet Sauvignon Museum 2014 from Clare Valley is a beautifully matured release, showing the pedigree of old‑vine fruit and careful cellaring in a rich yet balanced style. This O’Leary Walker Cabernet Sauvignon Museum Release 2014 is all about classic regional black fruit wrapped in polished tannin and savoury complexity.

Expect aromas of blackcurrant, cassis and dark plum with mint chocolate, cedar spice and a touch of leafy tobacco and earth, now nicely integrated with age. The palate is full‑bodied and structured but refined, delivering generous black fruit and bramble with dark chocolate notes, firm yet fine chalky tannins and a long, dry finish.

This museum Cabernet 2014 is spot‑on with rib‑eye steak, lamb cutlets, slow‑cooked beef cheeks or venison, and loves hard mature cheddar or aged gouda, especially after a short decant to let it fully stretch its legs.
