Place 

The Meyman’s Cabernet Sauvignon is masterfully composed from Kilikanoon’s diverse vineyard sites and sub -regions, across the Clare Valley, delivering an elegant and approachable style.

Vintage Conditions

A second consecutive dry year, coupled with higher than average temperatures, made for a challenging 2019/20 growing season this resulted in yields being down by as much as 30%. The new year brought milder temperatures which gave the vines much needed relief, providing ideal ripening conditions for flavour development and acid retention.

Winemaking

Harvested at sunrise, the fruit was crushed to traditional open fermenters, this is then hand plunged each day and then basket pressed to ensure gentle colour, flavour and tannin extraction. Each parcel is kept separate until final blending after 14 months in a selection of new and seasoned French oak hogsheads (300 Litres).
