2023 Circa 77 Cabernet Sauvignon
The generous palate is packed full of juicy fruits of the forest, cassis and red currant characters. Medium to full-bodied, the fleshy fruits are supported by moreish, supple and ripe tannins. A balanced wine, with a persistent fruit finish with beautiful regional savoury inflections of bay leaf, black olive and liquorice and subtle oak influences.

Viticulture
Varietal:87% Cabernet Savignon 5% Petit Verdot 5% Malbec 3% Cabernet Franc
Vintage:2023
Region:Margaret River
Conditions:The growing season began with a late budburst due to a cold winter, followed by a cool, wet spring, resulting in an extended flowering period, with good fruit-set for most varieties. The lack of Marri blossom meant that bird pressure was extreme. Though ripening was delayed for most varieties, the very dry, mild summer offered perfect ripening conditions, allowing fruit to retain wonderful natural acidity
