This single vineyard wine from our home vineyard in Derril Road is further evidence of what our fine vineyard site and mature vines can produce in a really good year. It includes some wine from interesting clones grafted onto our old Cabernet vines (planted in 1983).
17 months French Oak, 25% new
"There’s a gentle persuasion, a slight tension between the supple tannins and gossamer-like acidity that gives this definition yet still stays refined. The light hue belies the flavours of cherries and pips, sumac, chinotto and mandarin peel. Very even across the palate. Very easy to drink. A smashing wine." 95 pts James Halliday Wine Companion
