CREATING CLASSIC AUSTRALIAN WINES

60% cabernet sauvignon, 28% shiraz, 12% cabernet franc, hand-picked, crushed, destemmed, open and static fermenters, the cabernet and shiraz matured in used French barriques, the cabernet franc in a new French 4000L foudre for 12 months. Is at once supple, yet savoury/spicy, with vibrant red and black fruits, yet neatly tied together by fine tannins and oak. A complete wine.
