Tasting Notes
Aroma
Rich dark fruits of blackcurrant and blackberry with some savoury notes of cedar, warm spices and roasted coffee.
Maturation
French oak barriques and hogsheads for 9 months
Appearance
Ruby red with purple hues.
Palate
Cassis, dark chocolate and Christmas spices, balanced by fresh, juicy dark fruits. The wine has fine soft tannins and a smooth finish.
Vinification
Following harvest in mid-April, the fruit was fermented in stainless steel open fermenters for 7 days. Malolactic fermentation was also completed in stainless steel to retain freshness and aromatics. The blend was then barrelled down to 2nd fill and older French oak barriques and hogsheads for 9 months maturation prior to bottling.
Vintage Notes
Fruit for our Twist of Fate Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from vineyards located in Southern Coonawarra. The terra rossa soils and cool climate of these vineyards make them the perfect partners for growing high quality Cabernet.
Food Matching
Lamb chops with mint gremolata
Region Notes
The cool climate growing conditions of the Limestone Coast (located in the South-East corner of South Australia), make it the perfect fruit source for our Limestone Coast Selections.
