Description
Best Great Southern Cabernet - Halliday Cabernet Challenge 2023
Dark intense purple hues. Aromas of bay leaf, black fruits and some violet spice. The palate is powerful with fine tannin structure carried by more black fruit with graphite freshness.
Hand-picked from the selected small sections of our best old vines. Chilled, hand sorted at the winery and destemmed into open fermenters. Initial cold soak and then inoculated. The fermenters were pumped over with aeration twice a day. The wine was then basket pressed to French barriques (~30% new) once primary was complete for its Malo-lactic fermentation, allowing a soft integration of the grape and oak tannins. The wine was blended, fined with egg whites and bottled after 15 months maturation.
