Deakin Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
|
| |
|
|
Grape Variety:
Cabernet Sauvignon
Region:
The fruit for this wine was harvested from our Deakin Estate vineyard in Red Cliffs, North West Victoria.
Vinification:
Our Cabernet grapes were fermented with careful attention to maintaining mild temperatures and gentle maceration so that the tannin extraction could be accurately judged. Then, after a year of maturation to soften and extract oak flavours, our best Cabernet components were selected for this blend.
Colour:
Deep red
Nose:
Intense blackcurrant and blueberry aromas with a touch of cinnamon. This wine shows purity and strength.
Palate:
Heaps of berry fruit flavours, initially, then a warm and creamy vanilla finish. Strong tannins, yet fine and smooth.
Ideal Food Matches:
This wine cries out for a melt in your mouth beef steak but it would also go beautifully with many Italian dishes that featured red meat and black olives .
