Natalie's Score: 91/100

This robust Californian Cabernet is part of Clayhouse's Vineyard Series. The wine was matured for 16 months in a combination of American, French and other European oak barrels, which imparts some lovely spicy, smoky coffee notes. Extraordinary balance and complexity. Layers of flavour with cassis, blackcurrant and mocha predominating. Full-bodied with a lovely length on the finish. Pair with a juicy steak.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: veal chops, rosemary lamb, barbecued ribs in sauce, strong cheese.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
