2021 Sharegarden Cabernet Sauvignon

Region: Clare Valley

Vintage: 2021

Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon

Colour: Brick red with youthful crimson tints

Nose: Lifted aromas of dark chocolate, cocoa, and mocha predominate, accompanied by fresh cherries, with hints of leaf and cedary French oak.

Palate: Smooth and round in the mouth, the palate features a spectrum of layered chocolate, cigar box, and oak char in a complex and lingering finish.

Winemaking: Harvested in late March, this single vineyard Cabernet was picked and crushed into two 4-tonne open fermenters. It was pumped over twice daily and kept on skins for ten days before being basket-pressed into seasoned French oak hogsheads. Allowed to mature in oak for fifteen months, the wine was then blended, stored in stainless steel, and bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Cellaring Potential: 10 years

Pair With: This medium-bodied wine is perfect with a range of red meats, lighter cuts, mature cheeses, or simply on its own.
