19 Crimes Frankenstein Cabernet NV is a limited-edition release that brings together the bold winemaking heritage of 19 Crimes with the legendary story of Frankenstein. Produced in South Eastern Australia, this non-vintage Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted from grapes that thrive in the region’s warm climate and varied soils, delivering ripeness, structure, and intensity. The result is a full-bodied red wine that showcases depth and smoothness while remaining approachable and versatile, true to the style that has made 19 Crimes one of the world’s most recognizable wine labels.

The Frankenstein edition adds a darker, more dramatic twist to the 19 Crimes narrative. While every bottle in the collection honors the British convicts sentenced to transportation for one of 19 specific crimes, this special release expands the storytelling by linking with Frankenstein — a symbol of rebellion, defiance, and the power of creation against the odds. The label itself highlights this theme, making the wine not just a drink, but a collector’s piece that sparks conversation.

Both culturally intriguing and crafted with quality in mind, 19 Crimes Frankenstein Cabernet NV appeals to loyal fans of the brand as well as those drawn to its striking imagery and storytelling. With bold character, smooth drinkability, and a connection to one of literature’s most enduring figures, it embodies the spirit of innovation and defiance that defines 19 Crimes.

19 Crimes Frankenstein Cabernet NV is a bold, dramatic red that embraces a dark and powerful personality. It opens with deep aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum, accented by vanilla, mocha, and a touch of smoky spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and robust, delivering layers of ripe dark fruit balanced with notes of toasted oak, chocolate, and pepper. The tannins are firm yet smooth, giving the wine structure, while the finish is long and lingering with a mix of fruit, spice, and warmth.
This Cabernet is built for rich, hearty fare. As a Starter, it works beautifully with charcuterie, roasted red peppers, or spiced sausage bites. For the Main Course, it pairs perfectly with grilled ribeye, slow-braised short ribs, barbecued brisket, or lamb shanks, where its power matches the depth of flavor. In the Cheese course, it complements bold, aged selections like sharp cheddar, gouda, or blue cheese. For Dessert, it is a natural partner for flourless chocolate cake, black forest gâteau, or dark chocolate truffles, where its intensity enhances indulgent richness.

19 Crimes

19 Crimes is an Australian wine brand that blends storytelling with winemaking, inspired by the real-life tales of British convicts who were transported to Australia in the 18th and 19th centuries. The brand takes its name from the list of 19 offenses in England that were punishable by transportation rather than death, linking each wine to the rebellious spirit and resilience of those early settlers.

The wines are produced primarily in South Eastern Australia, a region known for its diverse climates and fertile soils that support a wide range of varietals. Grapes are sourced from select vineyards and crafted into approachable, fruit-forward wines designed for broad appeal. The winemaking process combines modern techniques with a nod to tradition, resulting in wines that are bold, expressive, and consistent from vintage to vintage.

Since its launch, 19 Crimes has become known not only for its quality wines but also for its distinctive branding. Each bottle features a historical figure connected to the convict era, with labels designed to bring their stories to life. The brand represents a fusion of heritage and innovation, offering wines that are both enjoyable to drink and rich in narrative, celebrating those who forged new lives against the odds.
