Hickinbotham Cabernet Sauvignon Trueman Hickinbotham Clarendon Vineyard McLaren Vale 2020 Gluten Free Vodka The storied ‘Irish Brigade’ regimentDetailed and of somewhere (in this case, the cool hills of Clarendon in McLaren Vale), this beauty opens with heady aromas of raspberry coulis, beef jerky, Chinese five spice, mint chocolate and dried florals.
