Four Trophies, five Golds and 97 points for this Cabernet-based red from a top-rated Aussie estate Bleasdale Vineyards have been proudly owned by the Potts family for five generations. Founder Frank Potts was born in Hounslow and joined the Royal Navy at just 9! He started his career as a powder monkey and travelled the world several times, before settling in South Australia in 1836. Originally a carpenter, in 1850 he spotted a great plot of land near the town of Langhorne Creek. He and his new wife decided to buy it and began farming. Theirs was the first winery of the region. In 2007, Paul Hotker joined them as winemaker (Winemaker of the Year 2018) and since then they've won 60+ Trophies. Named after its founder, this powerful, sleek red was aged a year in French oak, 25% new. Powerful, layered and complex, it should cellar very well.
