FIERCE III Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml
The 2019 growing season was dry through winter and spring and it continued that way until harvest, producing lower yields, with lots of varietal definition.
Grown on the Estate vineyards, at Rowland Flat in southern Barossa Valley. Sourced predominately from their Winery block. The vines are planted in 1995 on a single wire trellis managing yield to low/moderate and facilitating dappled sunlight to the fruit critically important to Cabernet Sauvignon to achieve tannin ripeness.
Cook with me, drink me, share me with your friends.
Colour: Black cherry, with vibrant garnet hues
Nose: Varietal aromas of Cassis, blackcurrant and red berry fruits. Hints of spice and toast from the American oak.
Palate: Intensely varietal Cabernet Sauvignon flavours on the palate. Full bodied, harmonious with upfront fruit characters and cocoa tannins that fan out from beginning to finish. Savoury notes of black olive and chocolate give length and structure to the wine.
