The Owl & The Dust Devil Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
This wine is a single varietal Cabernet Sauvignon which exhibits classic Cabernet Sauvignon flavours of cassis, red fruits and cedar notes woven together with supple tannins and the taut structure which is the hallmark of its origin, the high altitude Remolinos Vineyard in Agrelo, Mendoza.
92 Points - James Suckling
Lots of purple fruit on the nose, along with some fresh-tobacco and cedar undertones. It’s medium-bodied with firm, polished and lightly chewy tannins. Slightly hollow in the centre palate, but should fill in with bottle age.
93 Points - Tim Atkin
The pick of a strong range under The Owl and the Dust Devil label, this Remolinos Vineyard blend marries Malbec with 21% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Petit Verdot and 9% Tannat. Fresh, elegant and refined, in keeping with all the wines from Tommy Hughes, this is ripe, but not overly so with a spine of acidity and tannin and layers of blackberry, damson and blackcurrant leaf.
