100% Cabernet Sauvignon
WINEMAKING: The Cabernet blocks we chose for this wine were selected on dark fruit flavours and fineness of tannin. Fruit was destemmed, then put straight into warm ferment, with twice daily pump over of skins. Wine was pressed off skins when ferment was dry and desired palate weight and tannin extraction was achieved. Then oak matured with French and American oak for 9 months. Following oak maturation, the blend was lightly egg fined, then filtered prior to bottling.
Dark berry fruits and ripe plums with a subtle hint of chocolate and spice. Juicy ripe fruit adds sweetness, subtle oak adds texture and weight to the medium bodied palate.
