About this Wine

Museum Release. Each year, the Hooper family set aside some Museum stock for extended cellaring to be released when they deem each wine to be in a great place. Over the years, we have embraced their generosity and been rewarded with striking, mature, perfectly cellared wines. We are pleased to offer a slice of Bannockburn history.

Like the Estate Shiraz, Bannockburn’s Cabernet blends showcase the depth and strength of the estate’s savoury signature. The team are always pleasantly surprised by the resilience and quality of their aged Cabernet-based wines, finding structure, freshness and remarkable balance more often than not—a fact that can be attributed to the quality of site and farming, no doubt. The fruit hails from some of the oldest plantings at the estate: 1976 and 1981 Cabernet Sauvignon, 1981 Merlot and 1996 Shiraz. All three varieties are rooted deep in volcanic, dark, loamy soils atop a limestone base. In 2015, the fruit was picked by hand and destemmed, with a small portion left as whole clusters. The wine saw a lengthy maceration, after which it matured in seasoned French barrels of various sizes for 12 months.
