2020 Passel Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
2020 Cabernet Sauvignon
Margaret River, Western Australia
Medium to full bodied, velvety smooth, with flavours of black berries, mulberries and red currants with flecks of dried herbs and cherry blossom.
Description
Tasting Notes: Dark red in colour with crimson hints. A bouquet of violets, cassis, mulberries and graphite, with hints of cedar and mocha. Coating textures of black berries and red currants are accentuated by flecks of dried herbs and cherry blossom. The palate is guided by an unctuous array of bristling black fruit tannins, mineral and quenching, sumptuous and bold. A pristine finish of black mulberries and the slightest hint of meat spice.
Winemaking Notes: The fruit was harvested, and berries just split. After a cool 14-day ferment on skins with multiple, yet gentle daily pump overs, the wine was gently separated from the skins and transferred straight to French Oak barriques, 35% of which were new. The wine was matured for 10 months in oak, before being lightly fined, filtered and bottled.
