Wild & Wilder: The Pugilist Cabernet Sauvignon

Wild & Wilder is all about good clean fun. The winemakers work hand in hand with their merry band of growers, crafting wines of supreme quality at their Adelaide Hills winery.
Sometimes you’ve got to stick up for yourself… Fight for what is right in this world and uphold some good old fashioned values. Of course, one must always retain ones manners and obey the rules, just ask the Pugilist. He’s powerful, thick-skinned but well-bred and with the manners and sense of fair play of a true gent. The nose shows an array of perfumed characters such as violets, oregano & thyme, along with glacé cherry aromas. Sweet ripe cherry fruit dominates the front palate which then develops into a more savoury wine, showing earthiness, toasted spices and lovely dried herb characters.
