2018 Cabernet Sauvignon

Nine small, separate blocks of estate grown fruit harvested over a period of two weeks were selected for this vintage. The components were matured in twenty percent new French Oak for 14 months, the result being a wine of complexity through vineyard expression and time in oak.

Vintage:
Excellent growing conditions during spring led to healthy canopies and set the vineyard up beautifully for the rest of the season. A mild, yet very dry ripening season resulted in pristine fruit quality with an abundance of flavour intensity.

Colour:
Vibrant deep crimson with ruby hues.

Palate:
Up front cassis flavours continue on the complex palate with rich, dark chocolate mingling with the smooth and silky tannin structure.

Cellaring:
Ready to enjoy now, although will gain complexity over the next five to eight years with careful cellaring.

Alcohol:
14.0%
