Selected from our most intense, balanced and well-structured batch of McLaren Vale
Cabernet. From Selected vineyards in McLaren Vale, only the best parcels are utilised
for this maturation program, with only the finest barrels selected for bottling. A limited
release which varying quantities produced each vintage. 180 dozen produced in 2016.
The oak maturation was a very small portion of American oak, along with combination
of French oak, 80% old and 20% new. The oak profile has complimented the quality of
the fruit without overpowering or dominating the final blend
