St Hugo Orlando Cabernet Sauvignon 1987 is a classic mature Coonawarra Cabernet from the Orlando St Hugo label, a wine recognised for combining the region's power and structure with elegance. The 1987 vintage has developed considerable bottle-aged complexity, showing cassis, dark plum, earthy and herbaceous notes alongside smoky oak and gentle tertiary character. Contemporary tasting accounts describe the wine as full-bodied and voluptuous with a velvety texture, concentrated dark fruit and well-integrated oak.
