100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Mike and his wife, Colleen, purchased land in the Wrattonbully district in 2000 and went about planting the vineyard with Cabernet, Shiraz, Malbec and Merlot vines. Merlot and Cabernet was of particular interest to the couple, as they felt the region and the soils on the site might prove to be perfect for it. The estate is located in the Joanna section in the Wrattonbully wine region, the northern neighbor of Coonawarra, in South Australia. The vines benefit from soil profiles, like the famed Terra Rossa, and climate, like the Bonney Upwelling phenomenon cooling nights during summer periods. And then, Wrattonbully is a step up in elevation across gentle sloping ranges with greater variation of aspect among its vineyards, and slightly warmer daytime average temperatures.

A complex and age-worthy Cabernet.  It's a herbaceous wine, with notes of tobacco leaf, currants, cherry, cracked pepper and vanilla. There's surprising freshness on the palate, given the bottle age. The fruit is tangy and gripped by powerful tannins. Oak provides polish and seriousness without overwhelming the flavors.
