Estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon from mature vines rooted in gravelly loam soils delivered exceptional ripeness, colour, and tannin structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"766\" data-start=\"742\"\u003eWinemaking Process\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1081\" data-start=\"767\"\u003eFruit was hand-picked at optimum maturity and destemmed into small open fermenters.

The wine matured for 18 months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak barriques before being bottled without fining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"1102\" data-start=\"1083\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1313\" data-start=\"1103\"\u003eDeep ruby colour with aromas of cassis, black plum, bay leaf, and subtle cedar spice.
