Trofeo Estate Amphora Cabernet Sauvignon

Trofeo Estate Amphora Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 by Trofeo Estate from the Mornington Peninsula is an exciting cool‑climate cabernet, fermented and raised in terracotta for a vibrant, pure and energetic expression of the variety. This Trofeo Estate Amphora Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 style leans medium to full‑bodied, lively rather than oaky or heavy.

In the glass, expect blackberry, blackcurrant and blood plum with notes of tomato leaf, green capsicum, thyme and curry leaf, framed by subtle earthy tones from the amphora. The palate brings dark berries, chocolate and bay leaf, bright acidity and firmly silty tannins that run long and savoury.

This is a cracking partner for charcoal‑kissed ribeye, lamb cutlets with rosemary, grilled mushrooms, or slow‑braised beef cheeks. It will also sing with aged cheddar, hard sheep’s cheese and charred vegetable platters, making it a serious yet versatile table wine.
