Description

  • Ripe dark berries
  • Cedar-wood
  • Mouth coating
  • Balanced tannins

An intense dark colour red with purple edge. Ripe blackberry and blueberry characters, cedar-wood and liquorice. Soft, rich, mouth coating, balanced tannin with hints of classic Cabernet, authentically Heathcote. Lovely drinking now, but will age well and be even more complex and delicious over the next 3-8 years.

Vineyards from the Northern section of Heathcote were selected, mainly around Corop. The ancient red Cambrian soils of Northern Heathcote are ideal for dark fruited, rich, soft Cabernet.

Destemmed and fermented at 25-30°C over 8-12 days. Pressed and matured in vats and casks for 7 months, then racked and aerated regularly to soften the wine. Vineyards carefully selected for a balance of fruit weight and ripeness.
