This Cabernet Merlot shows well defined varietal characters of ripe dark cherries, plum and black currant mixed with hints of toasty oak. The palate is soft yet full-bodied with ripe flavours of plum, black currant and berry and great length of flavour.
Throughout budburst and ripening the Riverina region was experiencing drought conditions, so supplementary water was crucial. Rainfall in the middle of vintage helped the vines to get through the hot days, and Coronavirus lockdown started when the Cabernet was almost ready for picking. The Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot were harvested in the last two weeks of March, managing split shifts and social distancing. They were fermented separately in stainless steel vertical fermenters for 4-6days at around 26°C, then pressed at 1 baume via screw press into stainless steel and left to ferment until dry. The wine was then racked off gross lees onto French oak chips to complete malolactic fermentation. Once secondary fermentation was complete the wine was clarified and blended.
