Cabernet Sauvignon |
|
| The climate at Pat Carmody's Sunbury vineyard is cool, and some would say too cool to ripen Cabernet Sauvignon. With careful viticultural practices such as heavy pruning and training of vines for maximum solar exposure Pat can get his grapes to ripen and display a lovely complex array of flavors...... |

Cabernet Sauvignon |
|
| The warm and mild climate of the Barossa Valley means that grapes have no difficulty ripening. The key to making the best possible wine from these conditions is to ensure the vines are not stressed by heat and are allowed a little extra time on the vines to further develop flavor. This is particularly true for Cabernet Sauvignon in the Barossa Valley. It would be fair to say that it generally is not as successful as Shiraz across all producers. Elderton have always had great quality Cabernets and this release is one of their best...... |

Cabernet Sauvignon |
|
| Neil Pike has long been a master of the precious Riesling in the Clare Valley. In recent years he has concentrated on refining his reds, being very successful at taking them up to another level. It is no coincidence that the area as a whole is now being recognised as one of the finest producers of full bodied red wine in Australia. First the Shiraz variety was conquered and now it is the Cabernet Sauvignon and its associated varieties of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. This is clearly his finest example of this style to date...... |

Cabernet Sauvignon |
|
| For the majority of Australian wine producers if they had a Cabernet Sauvignon of this quality they would be jumping out of their skins telling everyone how wonderful the wine is. If you are Roman Bratasiuk and have a stable full of Australia's finest Shiraz, Grenache and Merlot, many people would think this is pushing belief to say this Cabernet Sauvignon is also one of Australia's best. Well try the wine and I'm sure you will agree this is a great wine...... |

|
| The Geelong climate is cool, and many would say too cool for Cabernet Sauvignon. But Bannockburn has Gary Farr who apart from being a truly gifted Winemaker, he is also a hard worker in the vineyard and his aggressive pruning policy ensures that only a tiny crop is ever realised from the Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard. The small crop allows the fruit that is on the vine to ripen up well beyond the expectations of such a cool location...... |

|
| Too often the Barossa Valley is dismissed as a producer of anything other the Shiraz. Certainly the success of that variety has made it difficult for all the other grape varieties. Yet Cabernet Sauvignon has typically been very successful in the Barossa, and this wine is no exception. The vintage of 1998 is very highly regarded; one of the best for many years, and that also shows in this wine...... |

|
| This is another example of the supreme vintage of 1998. Winemaker/owner Roman Bratasiuk has released 3 individual vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon wines, each offering a distinctive perspective of the noble grape variety. The “Hickinbotham Vineyard” is elegant and perfumed, packaged with an ever so slightly softer finish than its colleagues are. It’s still a very intense wine with a whole lifetime ahead of it...... |

|
| This wine strikes early!! Blackcurrants, hints of chocolate, dry spices and lovely toast characters abound on the nose. On the palate the fruit shows optimum ripeness with blackcurrant, elements of leather even cassis. The wine spent 12 months in new French barrique on lees, adding further to its complexity, and bottled without filtering or fining. Make no mistake this is a rich intense wine that has years ahead of it. Undoubtedly drinkable now, but it will evolve into an even more seductive wine over time. Cellaring potential: at least 10 to 15 years...... |
