The Cabernet Sauvignon (89%) for the Xanadu 'Circa 77' blend, comes predominantly from the estate-grown Houghton clone, which provides a balance of fruit-driven flavours, impeccable structure and fine tannins. The remainder of the blend is composed of Cabernet Franc (5%) Merlot (4%) and Petit Verdot (2%). At the winery, a portion of the blend was left for a period of extended maceration on skins followed by a gentle pressing adding plushness and a savoury textural element to the wine. The various batches underwent malolactic conversion in a combination of tank and barrel before 14 months maturation in a selection French oak barriques (20% new). Xanadu 'Circa 77' Cabernet Sauvignon is a polished and opulent red wine, with characteristic aromas of ripe black fruits and subtle spicy, toasty oak that lead to a generous palate of moreish juicy cassis, supple tannins and savoury overtones.[#intro]An opulent red, with aromas of ripe black fruits and a supple, juicy \u0026amp; savoury palate...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xanadu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41120767180867,"sku":"A20XANADUCIRCA77CAB-1","price":15.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/Circa77CabernetBt.jpg?v=1712086164","url":"https:\/\/hic.wine\/products\/xanadu-circa-77-cabernet-sauvignon","provider":"Hic!","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
