No oak. Wine kept in stainless steel tank & bottled very soon after vintage to maintain freshness & vibrancy.
Designed to drink now, while fruit is fresh and vibrant. Drink with Dumplings
Crunchy and vibrant, this nouveau style Cabernet Franc is bursting with fragrance and juicy red fruits. Subtle whole bunch characters add complexing aromatics of spice. The palate is soft, round and juicy, with a framework of creamy tannins supporting the core of intensely flavoured fruit.
Passion. Spontaneity. Soul. Just a few words that come to mind when we get ready to introduce our winemaker, Kate Goodman.
Kate is one of Australia's best contemporary winemakers. Wineries such as Wirra Wirra ( McLaren Vale), Tim Kanppstein (Clare Valley), Seppelt (Great Western), Punt Road (Yarra Valley) have all benefited from Kate's brilliance. There is no denial of talent and absolute harmony when it comes to Kate and the winery which we have witnessed each year since she started in 2016.
Her investment in us is what has fed their evolution into creating some spectacular contemporary varietals.
And with the addition of winemaker, Lauren Hansen, it's as though they have taken an almighty breath of fresh Coonawarra air and are totally inspired.
