The 95-Point Cabernet to Know Now: Introducing Wakefield Jaraman Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

The celebrated Australian Cabernet arrives in Ontario as a limited release.

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--One of Australia’s standout Cabernets has just landed in Ontario! Awarded an impressive 95 points, Wakefield Jaraman Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 is now available at select LCBO locations as a limited release, making it the bottle to know before it’s gone.

Rich, refined and made to be shared, Jaraman is an internationally celebrated Cabernet and the bottle to bring to dinner with friends, open for a milestone celebration or reach for whenever the occasion calls for something special.

The 2023 vintage earned 95 points at the VINUS International Wine and Spirits Competition, was named Cabernet Sauvignon of the Year at the Asia Wine Ratings with 94 points, and received 93 points and the title of Best Wine from Australia at the Frankfurt International Wine Trophy.

“Cabernet is one of those wines people continue to come back to. It has a way of making any gathering feel a little more special, and Jaraman captures that beautifully,” said Justin Taylor, third-generation member of the family behind Wakefield Wines. “We are incredibly proud of the recognition the 2023 vintage has received and excited for wine lovers across Ontario to discover a better bottle for the moments that matter.”

A MODERN CLASSIC, DISTINCTLY JARAMAN

Australian Cabernet is firmly back in the spotlight, and Jaraman is ready to meet the moment.

Each region brings its own character to the bottle, coming together in a Cabernet with generous flavour, beautiful balance and a smooth, polished finish. Graceful yet bold, Jaraman makes a memorable impression from the first sip.

The cooler 2023 growing season helped bring greater intensity and expression to the fruit, while 14 to 18 months in predominantly seasoned French oak added depth and richness. In the glass, flavours of dark cherry and blackcurrant are layered with hints of mint, cedarwood, chocolate and delicate floral notes.

Inviting and easy to enjoy, Jaraman is ready to open today or save for a future celebration. It is a bottle worth gathering around, whether shared at your own table or brought along to someone else’s.

About Wakefield Wines

In the late 1960s, the Taylor family set out to establish something enduring...not simply a vineyard, but a new standard in Australian winemaking. They chose the banks of the Wakefield River in the Clare Valley, South Australia, a site that would come to be known for wines of structure, balance and longevity. From the outset, the ambition was clear: to craft wines that would stand the test of time, chosen with confidence across any occasion. Three generations on, that philosophy endures. Wakefield Wines creates wines returned to with confidence, time and again. That confidence is built into every bottle, in its structure, balance and consistency over time. At the pinnacle, our wines are the purest expression of time, place and craft, reserved for more significant occasions. Wines not only to be enjoyed but selected with assurance when the occasion calls for something more.
