Zonte’s Footstep Blackberry Patch Cabernet Sauvignon Fleurieu 2022

DESCRIPTION:

Blackberry Patch is a flagship Cabernet from Zonte’s Footstep that combines bold black fruit expression with elegant oak and a coastal edge from Fleurieu. It’s designed for wine lovers who appreciate power, but also refinement and drinkability.

FEATURES:

Colour: Deep, inky black-purple with a regal, rich hue. 

Nose: Inviting aromas of cassis, dark cherries, and liquorice, layered with cedar, dark chocolate, and a hint of clotted cream.

Palate: Plush, mouth-filling blackberries and blackcurrants, balanced by juicy tartness and fine, chewy Cabernet tannins. 

Aftertaste / Finish: A lingering, cigar-box character mingles with the fruit — deep, intense, elegant, and very persistent. 

Structure: Well-defined “line and length” — balanced acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a long, polished finish.
