This vintage of Coppermine Road displays an aromatic profile of cassis, black cherry, mulberry, dried herbs, cedar, tobacco leaf, and subtle earthy undertones. Hints of graphite, chocolate, and warm spices add further depth and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1191\" data-end=\"1668\"\u003eOn the palate, the wine is full-bodied, richly textured, and beautifully proportioned. Layers of dark fruit unfold across a firm tannin backbone, showing structure typical of top Cabernet yet wrapped in McLaren Vale’s signature plushness. French and American oak maturation contributes notes of vanilla, spice, and toasted cedar, integrating seamlessly with the concentrated fruit. The finish is long and elegant, leaving lingering flavours of cassis, cocoa, and savoury herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1670\" data-end=\"1942\"\u003eNow entering a superb drinking window, the 2009 Coppermine Road offers the harmony and evolved complexity that mature Cabernet lovers seek. Its combination of richness, structure, and savoury development makes it one of the standout Coppermine Road releases of the decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1944\" data-end=\"2078\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1944\" data-end=\"1955\"\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e McLaren Vale, South Australia\u003cbr data-start=\"1985\" data-end=\"1988\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1988\" data-end=\"2000\"\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr data-start=\"2019\" data-end=\"2022\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2022\" data-end=\"2034\"\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~14.5%\u003cbr data-start=\"2041\" data-end=\"2044\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2044\" data-end=\"2064\"\u003eDrinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e Now – 2030+\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2080\" data-end=\"2218\"\u003eA compelling choice for collectors and enthusiasts of full-bodied Australian Cabernet with power, finesse, and excellent ageing potential.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52736086966635,"sku":"SK42812405","price":99.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2009_d_Arenberg_The_Coppermine_Road_Cabernet_Sauvignon_750ml.png?v=1780389892","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/2009-darenberg-the-coppermine-road-cabernet-sauvignon-750ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
