2020 Cabernet Sauvignon

Deep red with purple hues.

aroma

A heady perfume of violet, raspberry and mulberry, layered with a subtle pop of cedar and graphite.

palate

The palate shows great concentration combined with immense brightness and poise, intense blackcurrant enmeshed with a hint of salted plum and cocoa powder. Seductive, velvet like tannins, juicy and moreish, build to an expansive, long finish.

cellaring

This wine is delicious now, however careful cellaring until 2030 will reward.

The 2020 vintage was a brilliant season in Margaret River. A warm and dry season with below average crop yield allowed for perfect tannin development and an incredible intensity of flavour. The resulting 2020 wines show amazing brightness and clarity, intense and charming fruit character and a youthful tannin structure.

The Cabernet Sauvignon was fermented solely in static fermenters where pump-overs and delestage were used to extract fine tannin and colour. Primary fermentation occurred solely in tank before the wine was racked to new and seasoned French barriques for malolactic fermentation and aged for 18 months.
