McGuigan Single Batch Project Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml 2022

A soft-spoken Cab with a generous heart—ripe dark fruit, silky tannins, and just enough oak to keep things classy.

Why we like it

This is Cabernet that doesn’t shout. It leads with juicy blackcurrant and plum, glides across the palate with velvety tannins, and signs off with a gentle cedar-spice note. Medium-bodied and dry, it’s an easy “yes” for weeknight pasta or duck confit, and happy to stretch to a Sunday roast.

What you’ll taste

• Dark berries, plum, and a touch of cherry

• A subtle herbal lift and hints of cedar spice

• Smooth, rounded finish with soft, fine tannins

Pair it with

Beef (from burgers to roast), rich tomato-based pastas, or duck.
