Hollick Stock Route Limestone Coast Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 - 6 Bottles

Product Description

Background

Hollick Estates is a boutique winery located on the famed terra rossa soils of the Coonawarra region in South Australia. Founded in 1975, Hollick has built its reputation on vineyard-focused wines that reflect the unique soil, climate, and winemaking craftsmanship of this prestigious region. The Stock Route Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon is part of their premium range, showcasing the best of Coonawarra's terroir.

Vineyards & Vintage Conditions

The 2019 vintage experienced cool and dry conditions, providing slow and even ripening that allowed for full flavour development and soft, ripe tannins. The shallow terra rossa soils let the vines fight to reach the nutrients they need, producing excellent fruit.

Winemaking

Crafted from estate-grown fruit, the Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon underwent traditional winemaking techniques to preserve their delicate aromas and flavours. The wine was fermented separately to ensure optimal extraction and then aged in French and American oak barrels for 18 months to enhance its complexity and texture.
