Description

19 Crimes Cabernet Sauvignon is more than just a wine; it is a captivating tribute to the history of Australia. Inspired by the 19 crimes that, in the 18th century, resulted in British convicts being sentenced to 'transportation' to Australia, this wine tells the stories of those who survived the treacherous journey and helped forge a new nation. Each bottle label features a historical figure and, through the innovative 'Living Wine Labels' augmented reality app, their story comes to life right before your eyes.

Crafted primarily from grapes sourced across South Eastern Australia, this Cabernet Sauvignon is renowned for its approachability and bold, character-driven profile. It is a full-bodied red that excels in delivering a rich, smooth mouthfeel. On the nose, you will be greeted by enticing aromatics of dark berries, delicate violets, and a signature hint of sweet vanilla, a hallmark of its maturation in oak. On the palate, the wine balances deep fruit flavors—such as blackberry and black currant—with secondary notes of chocolate and toasty oak. Its velvety tannins make it an incredibly easy-drinking selection that does not sacrifice complexity for accessibility.

This wine is a fantastic choice for those who enjoy a bold, fruit-forward red with a smooth finish. It is remarkably versatile at the dinner table; it pairs beautifully with hearty, savory dishes such as grilled ribeye steak, slow-cooked pulled pork, or even a classic beef burger. It also stands up well to aged, sharp cheeses like a bold cheddar, making it a perfect companion for a casual evening or a social gathering. Whether you are drawn in by its rebellious spirit, the fascinating historical context of its labeling, or simply its reputation as a reliable, crowd-pleasing pour, 19 Crimes Cabernet Sauvignon offers an engaging experience from the first pour to the last sip. It is designed for those who appreciate a wine with attitude, history, and a smooth, modern finish.
