This is a mighty wine. It has muscle, it has flesh, it melts in your mouth and it triggers your brain too. It's the complete package. It's dark with berried flavour, coated in smoky vanillin oak, alive with spice and earth, and shoots ripples of flavour and tannin out through the finish. Top notch in all respects.

Over generations, the estate has built a reputation for wines of regional character, consistency and longevity, drawing fruit from premium vineyard sites across Western Australia. Houghton is widely recognised as one of the state’s most awarded wineries, with a long history of producing classic Australian wines with both quality and value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2085\" data-end=\"2465\"\u003eThe Jack Mann label sits at the very top of the Houghton portfolio. It honours Jack Mann, one of Australia’s most influential winemakers, who guided Houghton for more than five decades and helped shape the identity of Western Australian wine. His legacy is closely tied to wines of intensity, elegance and regional expression, and this Cabernet Sauvignon continues that tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2467\" data-end=\"2843\"\u003eThe fruit for Jack Mann Cabernet Sauvignon is associated with the Justin Vineyard in Frankland River, part of the Great Southern wine region. Frankland River is highly regarded for Cabernet Sauvignon, with its cool nights, long growing season, ancient soils and natural freshness helping produce wines with black fruit concentration, fine tannins and excellent ageing ability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"7p6opv\" data-start=\"2845\" data-end=\"2868\"\u003eCellaring Potential\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2870\" data-end=\"3198\"\u003eHoughton Jack Mann Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 is drinking beautifully now, especially with decanting, but it still has years ahead under good storage conditions. Enjoy now to 2035. Over time, expect the primary cassis and dark berry fruit to develop further notes of leather, cedar, cigar box, earth, dried herbs and savoury spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"4dkazj\" data-start=\"3200\" data-end=\"3220\"\u003eCollector’s Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3222\" data-end=\"3529\"\u003eThis is a serious collector bottle from one of Western Australia’s flagship Cabernet labels. The 2015 vintage has strong critical praise, with Halliday describing it as a powerful, complete wine. For collectors of premium Australian Cabernet, Jack Mann remains a benchmark name with real cellaring pedigree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1dr5t50\" data-start=\"3531\" data-end=\"3542\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3544\" data-end=\"3771\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3544\" data-end=\"3557\"\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Houghton\u003cbr data-start=\"3566\" data-end=\"3569\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3569\" data-end=\"3581\"\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2015\u003cbr data-start=\"3586\" data-end=\"3589\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3589\" data-end=\"3601\"\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr data-start=\"3620\" data-end=\"3623\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3623\" data-end=\"3634\"\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Frankland River, Great Southern, Western Australia\u003cbr data-start=\"3685\" data-end=\"3688\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3688\" data-end=\"3704\"\u003eBottle Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003cbr data-start=\"3710\" data-end=\"3713\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3713\" data-end=\"3723\"\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full bodied red wine\u003cbr data-start=\"3744\" data-end=\"3747\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3747\" data-end=\"3759\"\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screw cap\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Parkhill Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Pack Size 1","offer_id":48768579895513,"sku":null,"price":149.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/8015\/9961\/files\/Houghton_Jack_Mann_Cabernet_Sauvignon_2015_750ml.png?v=1780736082","url":"https:\/\/parkhillcellars.com.au\/products\/houghton-jack-mann-cabernet-sauvignon-2015-750ml","provider":"Parkhill Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
