A crafted blend from two estate vineyards across our Golden Hillside region in Leasingham adjacent the Kilikanoon winery.

Winemaking

This vineyards elevated position, cool nights and warm days during the harvest period, has defined the wines elegance, flavour ripeness and distinctive regional and varietal characters, in this highly prized Clare Valley Cabernet.

Matching new technologies with traditional vinification techniques such as basket pressing, ageing each separate parcel in a combination of new and more seasoned French oak casks for sixteen months and bottling the final cuvee both un-fined and unfiltered has given the wine additional complexity and cellaring potential.

Appearance

Brick red in colour with youthful crimson hues.

Nose

Multilayered and intense, with attractive flavours of cherries and blackberries, subtle leafiness and hints of emerging cigar box combining on the nose, further enhanced by smoky oak char.

Palate

Pitch perfect with seductively polished tannins, dark fruit flavours and textural consistency, with juicy cassis, bell pepper, and lingering oak persistence.

    • ALC/VOL: 14.0%
    • Size: 750ML
    • Closure: Screwcap
    • Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
