Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Profile
Fresh and finely detailed, with blackcurrant, red cherry and subtle herbal notes layered with graphite and gentle spice. Medium-bodied and supple, framed by silky tannins and bright energy. A Cabernet that feels composed, vibrant and made for the table.
Fermentation
Handpicked fruit was carefully sorted and fermented with gentle extraction to favour detail and fine tannin over power. The wine was matured for fourteen months in French oak, with 30 percent new barrels contributing structure and savoury complexity without dominating the fruit. Time and restraint shaped a Cabernet defined by precision, balance and quiet confidence rather than weight.
Vineyards
Sourced from our estate vineyard in Coldstream, planted on broken-down sandstone with clay, a soil profile ideally suited to Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyard is planted to the WA Cape Clone, more commonly found in Western Australia, which we value here for the way it brings a modern blue-fruited lift to a distinctly Yarra Valley expression.
Vintage
The 2020 season in the Yarra Valley began cool, with a slow and even ripening period that encouraged flavour development without excess weight. Low yields and smaller bunches delivered concentration and detail, while careful timing preserved freshness and balance.
