2021 Single Vineyard 'Elderslee Road' Cabernet Sauvignon
2021 was long, cool and dry season with a late, unhurried harvest. That extra time on the vine shows in the deep colour and concentrated fruit. Flavours of red currant and blackberry integrate perfectly with spicy French oak. A rich palate packed with sweet ripe berry fruits balanced by time spent in French oak. Fine ripe tannins provide great structure and depth to the long and generous palate. A full bodied Cabernet of distinction.
The call came through mid-afternoon and the news was good. Nobody planned anything, but the kids are in bed early, the phone’s face down on the bench, and the two of you finally sit down. Some nights there’s no reason to wait for a better one.
