Tasting Notes

It’s bright and lively with energy bursting through it. Has a floral note with a subtle blackcurrant leafiness. It’s elegantly structured and medium-weight but with tremendous power. Has a chalky dusty character. The amphora appears responsible for promoting the essential glowing characters of the fruit.

Product Highlights

From one of Great Southern’s oldest Cabernet sites, planted back in 1972, comes a wine that balances poise with power. Amphora and barrique fermentation add nuance and finesse, while delicate florals and a savoury graphite edge frame the fruit. It’s no wonder Ray Jordan awarded it 98pts, calling it “as good as anything Nelson has made.” This is a serious wine, crafted with detail and built to reward both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring.
