Mcpherson Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
|

|
|
This wine is a dense inky-purple colour with an enticing nose displaying aromas of ripe blackberries and plums with a slight hint of eucalyptus. The palate is elegantly structured with fruit intensity, integrated spicy oak and above all, finesse.
The grapes for this Cabernet Sauvignon were picked and crushed during the cool of night, thus ensuring the retention of varietal character and intense colour.
Modern winemaking techniques were employed throughout beginning with cold maceration of the fruit prior to fermentation to help bring out colour and the wine’s
primary varietal characters – such as blackcurrant and eucalyptus flavours. Whilst still fermenting, the wine was transferred onto medium toast, French oak where it then spent several months, giving the wine a subtle enhancing structure and allowing a subtle spice character adding further complexity to the overall style.
The inclusion of some high quality Central Victorian fruit in the blend has improved both the colour and flavour profiles of the wine.
