Before reviewing the Picarus Wrattonbully Cabernet Sauvignon, I’d never heard about the Wrattonbully wine region. So before opening the bottle did a little research and I found that the relatively unknown Wrattonbully wine region is located in South Australian between the Padthaway and Coonawarra wine regions. Apparently according to Wine Australia, this is very little variation in the wines across the three regions.
The Picarus Wrattonbully Cabernet Sauvignon is a full bodied wine with distinct berry and blackcurrant notes and oak flavour. The grapes are nurtured by renowned Coonawarra district viticulturist, Greg Koch and made by ex-Wynns Coonawarra/Southcorp legend, Rob Moody. Greg and Rob first became involved in the production of Picarus with the highly acclaimed 2005 wines.
Picarus recommend that the 2006 Picarus Wrattonbully Cabernet Sauvignon is ready to drink now, but will be in its prime in 5-7 yerars
The Picarus brand is Winetrust Estate’s Premium Wine Brand and apart from the cabernet sauvignon other varieties in the range include a resiling, shiraz and chardonnay. Picarus will be represented in selected outlets around Australia and in seven export markets

A light, easy drinking, low carb sparkling white wine which will no doubt be a very popular this summer.
