A great wine that will deliver all you want in a cool climate cabernet without breaking the bank. All the juicy dark red berries we love come to the fore alongside bramble, dark chocolate and violet characters, all wrapped up in earthiness and fine-grained tannin. It’s a medium-bodied red that’s soft, fleshy and elegant. If you’re keen to see what a bit of cellaring will do, give it 3-5 years.

Vinification

Fruit for this wine was machine harvested from Yarra Glen. The fruit was destemmed and crushed into static fermenters and inoculated straight away at low rates to promote a slow start fermentation slowly. One tank remained ‘on skins’ for a month post ferment.
