Hawk And Horse is an underrated winery that should get more attention than it does. Its fruit sources are impeccable and its style is bold, ripe and powerful. This muscular Cabernet shows complex black-fruit layers with hints of wood smoke and spice and firm tannins that will soften over the next three to five years, making it a good candidate to cellar although it’s plenty enjoyable to drink now. A platinum award-winner at the 2017 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
