Teusner The Gentleman Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a generous, approachable and beautifully crafted Barossa Cabernet from one of the valley’s most celebrated boutique producers — vibrant, fruit-driven and built with the dark fruit richness, fine cassis character and supple tannin structure that makes The Gentleman the perfect introduction to Kym Teusner’s exceptional Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon winemaking.

Teusner is one of the Barossa Valley’s most celebrated boutique producers — founded by Kym Teusner and Michael Page in 2003 and built on a philosophy of sourcing the finest old-vine Barossa fruit and crafting wines of extraordinary depth and character with minimal intervention. The Gentleman is named in the spirit of the classic Barossa hospitality and generosity that defines the valley’s culture — a wine that is approachable, generous and immediately welcoming, delivering the full character of Kym Teusner’s Barossa Cabernet winemaking at an accessible everyday price. While the Barossa Valley is celebrated above all for Shiraz, Kym Teusner’s Cabernet range demonstrates that the valley’s ancient soils and warm climate can produce Cabernet Sauvignon of genuine depth and character — and The Gentleman is the ideal entry point to that discovery.

My Wine Man

This is for someone who wants a generous, approachable Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon from one of the valley’s most celebrated boutique producers at an exceptional everyday price.

The Gentleman is the entry point to Teusner’s Barossa Cabernet range — more approachable and immediately enjoyable than the structured Kavalier, but carrying the same Kym Teusner winemaking philosophy and Barossa fruit quality that makes every wine in the Teusner portfolio so compelling. It delivers the cassis-driven generosity and supple tannin character of great everyday Barossa Cabernet in a style that works equally well on a Tuesday night or at a dinner party.

At HK$139, this is exceptional value for a Teusner Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon of this quality and approachability.

In my view, this is one of the finest value everyday Barossa Cabernets available — generous, vibrant and very complete.

What makes this wine stand out

This is all about Barossa Cabernet generosity and Kym Teusner’s mastery of approachable, fruit-driven Cabernet Sauvignon.

Blackcurrant, cassis, dark cherry and plum sit at the core, with cedar, fine spice and the characteristic warmth and generosity that defines great everyday Barossa Cabernet. The palate is medium to full-bodied with supple, well-integrated tannins and a smooth, generous finish that makes this one of the most immediately enjoyable Cabernets in the store.

The defining feature is the approachability — this is Barossa Cabernet that delivers immediate pleasure and generous cassis-driven fruit character without the weight or structure of the bigger styles, making it the perfect everyday red for any occasion.

Generous, vibrant and completely compelling.
