Tasting Notes

Colour:Deep red
Nose:The aroma is refined and complex, exhibiting intense aromas of blackcurrants and ripe mulberries, with subtle fragrances of potpourri, rose petal and spice still lingering in the background.
Palate:The luxurious, full bodied palate is crammed full of ripe forest fruits, cassis and dark chocolate characters. Exhibiting exceptional texture and structure, the dense fruits are complemented with plenty of supple tannins; all culminating together to provide a powerful, lingering fruit finish.

Viticulture

Varietal:Cabernet Sauvignon (90%) Petit Verdot (5%) Malbec (5%)
Vintage:2013
Region:Margaret River
Conditions:A mild Spring and relatively dry growing season provided good flowering and excellent fruit set. Warm, sometimes hot and dry conditions after Christmas, combined with cool nights, brought vintage forward a couple of weeks earlier than the regional average. Abundant Marri blossom leading up to and during harvest kept bird pressure very low, with many vineyards not even requiring bird nets this season. No significant rainfall was experienced throughout the harvest, with the fine warm conditions continuing right through to the end of March allowing all red varieties to achieve great flavour and tannin ripeness and continuing the dream run of Margaret

Winemaking

Alcohol:14%
Bottle Size:750ml
pH:3.55
Winemaking Notes:Fruit was crushed/destemmed before small batch fermentation in a combination of static and open fermenters. Fermentation takes 7-8 days 24 to 26°C, during which the cap is managed using a combination of aerative pumping over as well as regular plunging by hand. The cabernet components experienced a period of extended maceration on skins for 28 days before a very gentle pressing. MLF was carried out in barrel. All of the components were matured for 14 months in French oak barriques before the blend was assembled from a selection of ‘best barrels’ from each batch (50% new oak). The blend was then returned to older French oak barriques for further 2 months maturation, allowing the components to marry together prior to bottling.

Our process is driven by a deep respect for the land, ensuring that we protect the integrity and potential of our region.
