2012 Single Vineyard 'Calcare' CW Cabernet Sauvignon
Calcare Cabernet Sauvignon is selected from the best rows of our small vineyard from the world famous Coonawarra region. The renowned quality of Coonawarra is a product of its thin rocky soils and underlying soft crumbly limestone (Calcare) which naturally produces balanced vine canopies and small crops of intensely flavoured fruit. A fine example of Coonawarra style displaying ripe cassis fruits with lifted spice and florals.
Aged Tasting Note
Real cellar age has drawn this Cabernet somewhere the young vintages haven't reached, cassis giving way to dried fig and cedar, the structure softening into something silky rather than firm. Coonawarra's famous terra rossa over limestone gives it the backbone to age gracefully, and this is exactly what that patience delivers.
This one has already done the patient work for you. Anniversary dinner, long table, something slow in the oven. Pull the cork and let it do the rest.
