| GRAPE VARIETIES |
100% Cabernet Sauvignon |
| REGION |
100% Clare Valley |
| COLOUR |
Rich, deep purple Ð red. |
| BOUQUET |
A complex and inviting blend of soft cedar oak, leather and sweeter black fruits with dark plum. |
| PALATE |
Densely layered flavours of gently sweet blackberry fruits with quite savoury / earthy notes. This is a medium weight wine of great complexity and structure held together by firm, mouth-coating tannins. That regional menthol lift shows on the finish. |
| GENERAL |
Our 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon has spent in excess of 18 months maturing in a careful selection of old and new, predominantly French oak. This time in barrel gives the opportunity for the naturally pronounced tannins of the Cabernet grape to soften and integrate - however further cellaring is recommended (up to 8 years). |
| SERVE |
Pair this complex little beast with old fashioned spiced Italian sausages or slow roasted saltbush hogget. |
