blackberry and mint on the nose. Flavours follow through
of sweet berry-fruit accented by fresh muddled mint.

Our Cabernet is fermented in static fermenters at controlled
temperatures to retain the varietal aromatics. Once complete the
wine is left for 7–10 days on skins to aide in the extraction of soft
fleshy tannins and build wine structure. French & American oak
has been used sparingly to ensure maximum fruit expression is
retained in the final wine.
Harvest commenced three weeks later than usual due to the
cooler temperatures and slower ripening. This has resulted in
good parcels of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc with lovely
aromatics & flavour. Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon have good
colour with concentrated berry flavours, vibrancy and fruitderived characters that we strive for in our wines.
“Our family vineyard is located in the picturesque and historic
Padthaway valley, 300 km south of Adelaide. Our rich, fertile
terra rosa soils, environmentally friendly viticulture, low yield
and exceptional fruit is how we consistently produce outstanding
wines. Small parcels of the highest quality fruit are selected
from our family vineyard and handcrafted to create wines with
amazing depth of flavour, style and balance…” – David Bryson
