A perfectly structured and elegant cool climate Cabernet Sauvignon, matured in 30% new french oak hogsheads for 18 months prior to bottling. The 2018 growing season started slowly, but warmer weather eventually helped to speed things up. Fruit set throughout the region was good and the low rainfall and warm weather from January to April resulted in great sugar development, while a cooler than average March offered ideal night temperatures for colour and flavour development.
