Wirra Wirra Hickinbotham Vineyard McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2025 - 6 Bottles

Product Description

Wirra Wirra Hickinbotham Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a structured McLaren Vale red with concentrated black-fruit character and detailed savoury complexity. Cassis, blackberry and blackcurrant combine with cedar, bay leaf, dark chocolate and subtle spice. The palate is firm yet refined, with fine-grained tannins, fresh acidity and a long finish that carries the wine's dark fruit and savoury characters.

Regional Character

The fruit comes from the historic Hickinbotham Vineyard in McLaren Vale's Clarendon sub-region. Its elevated position and cooler conditions contribute to Cabernet Sauvignon with concentrated fruit, aromatic definition and firm natural structure.

Winemaking Techniques

The fruit is carefully selected and handled to preserve Cabernet Sauvignon's varietal character while developing structure and complexity. Oak maturation contributes cedar, spice and savoury notes that integrate with the concentrated fruit and tannin.
