Winemaker Notes
Lifted aromas of blackcurrant like fruit with hints of mint, earth and mocha oak. A delicious, medium bodied red with fleshy, ripe blackcurrant, plum and chocolate flavours intertwined with spicy, vanillin oak. Soft, velvety tannins dry off the lingering finish.
In 1951, F.H.Edwards and W.B.Chaffey introduced Seaview Cabernet Sauvignon which had the distinction of being one of Australia's first varietally-labelled table wines. Exemplifying the generous flavours associated with McLaren Vale, Seaview Cabernet Sauvignon quickly earned a reputation for quality, consistency and value-for-money. Through a combination of hard work and courage, F.H.Edwards and W.B.Chaffey built up the region's reputation and, in doing so, paved the way for the expansion that would take place in McLaren Vale over the following years. Seaview has continued to produce a range of wonderfully full-bodied reds as well as distinctive, intensely-flavoured white wines.
