Wine Description
Grapes are harvested and brought back to our Willunga winery before being crushed and fermented in open vessels. Juice is pumped over the fermenting grapes twice a day to draw out maximum colour and flavour from the skins. Fermentation finishes in barrel. We use French oak barrels (about 30% new oak, the balance one and two-year old) for this purpose and for maturating the wine. The Cabernet spends about 12 months in oak before bottling.
Red fruits and a hint of green herbs on the nose. No mistaking the variety, this is a medium bodied, with wonderful red fruit characters and fine tannins and a wonderful finish.
