Barossa

The Signature

Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz 2012

Vintage quality:
2012 was an almost perfect growing season in the Barossa. La Niña conditions moderated throughout 2011 leading to good soil moisture for the growing vines to access. Average temperatures through spring and early summer enabled the vines to flourish with healthy, balanced canopies and good fruit set. Mild conditions through January to March allowed the grapes to ripen in ideal conditions producing fruit with outstanding depth of flavour and concentration.

Notes:
Fragrant and complex wine with black cherry, blackberry, graphite, cedar aromas with brambly notes. Lovely inky density and well- balanced cedar, roasted chestnut oak notes. Generously flavoured and well evolved wine with impressive vigour and mineral length.
