Description

We believe in minimal intervention, fermenting the grapes with indigenous yeast at moderate temperatures that allow the wine to gain flavours and colour from extended skin contact. Each lot is aged separately for several months and then blended to create a wine that is more complex than the individual parts. After blending, the wine spent another year and a half in barrel to completely harmonize before bottling. Our Cabernet is rich with aromas of balsamic glazed figs, dried rose petals and a touch of green peppercorns. Smooth and rich on the palate with a persistent finish, this wine is the perfect partner with grilled steak, rack of lamb or roasted duck.
