Cape Mentelle Cabernet Sauvignon

The classic age-worthy Cape Mentelle Cabernet Sauvignon, with its beautiful fragrance, pure blackcurrant fruit, dried herb notes and sinewy structure, is an historic wine style of the Margaret River region. Deriving from the wind-protected Wallcliffe Vineyard, planted between 1970 and 1973, it is made using classic Bordelais techniques with an Australian twist. Each batch is gently basket pressed into new (50–60%) and one-year-old French oak for a maturation period of between 18 and 24 months.
