A mild and very steady vintage allowed for slow, measured flavour and tannin development.

A yeast culture was then added mid-way through fermentation (which lasted 10 days) after the desired texture, structure and style was achieved. Following pressing, the wine was transferred into a combination of new (21%) and used French oak hogsheads (300L) where they underwent malolactic fermentation. After 15 months in barrel, each individual barrel was tasted and assessed to determine which barrels were included in the final blend. The wine was then carefully blended and bottled without fining or filtration, followed by extended maturation in bottle prior to release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eregion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMargaret River \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003evariety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCabernet Sauvignon \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eanalysis\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlcohol: 14.0%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epH: 3.54\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcidity (TA): 6.60 g\/L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVegan-friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[split]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChargrilled hogget backstrap with mint sauce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[split]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAwards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWine Show of Western Australia 2024\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[badge rating=\"gold\" title=\"Wine Show of Western Australia 2024\"]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerth Royal Wine Awards 2022\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[badge rating=\"gold\" title=\"perth royal wine awards 2022\"]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNational Wine Show of Australia 2023\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[badge rating=\"silver\" title\u003c\/span\u003e=\"National Wine Show of Australia 2023\"]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eJames Halliday Chardonnay \u0026amp; Cabernet Challenge 2023\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[badge rating=\"silver\" title\u003c\/span\u003e=\"James Halliday Chardonnay \u0026amp; Cabernet Challenge 2023\"]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eJames Halliday Australian Chardonnay \u0026amp; Cabernet Challenge 2022\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[badge rating=\"silver\" title\u003c\/span\u003e=\"James Halliday Australian Chardonnay \u0026amp; Cabernet Challenge 2023\"]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRoyal Hobart Wine Show 2022\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[badge rating=\"silver\" title=\"Margaret River Wine Show 2023\"]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSydney Royal Wine Show 2022\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[badge rating=\"silver\" title=\"Sydney Royal Wine Show 2023\"]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[split]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHalliday Wine Companion 2024\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere’s some advice: decant this then prepare dinner, maybe a rack of lamb or roast beef, lots of roasted vegetables including beetroot, gather friends for a feast and pour the wine. It should have unfurled in the time it took to do the aforementioned. Wonderful fragrance and flavours of mulberries, cranberries, cinnamon and plenty of cedary\/woodsy spices from the oak. It’s full bodied, densely packed with flavour and has no shortage of tannins, albeit ripe and grainy tannins in a youthful context.
