Did you know that Australian Formula One star Daniel Ricciardo teamed up with St Hugo to create DR3 x St Hugo? I’ve enjoyed the wine that has been produced through this collaboration, and this Cab Sauv blew me away.
Review: A sophisticated full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon displaying complexity and depth, which will only further develop over time. The nose offers ripe blueberry and dark plum notes with nuances of cedar, cigar box, aged leather, milk chocolate, and dried eucalyptus.
This wine is at once bold and refined on the palate with balanced acidity and smooth, well-integrated tannins. The flavour profile presents vibrant notes of tart plum, cassis and red cherry, complemented by herbal and floral undertones and cocoa nuances. An excellent accompaniment to a hearty beef roast or grilled red meat.
