Description
PJ’s Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Langhorne Creek, South Australia
Viticulture
2013 was a good growing season which allowed the grapes to ripen early. The vines had minimal irrigation and the crop levels were low to ensure the vines produced a balanced crop of grapes.
Winemaking
This wine was made as a small batch (10 tonne) with a warm ferment over 7 days, before being pressed off skins into a combination of 100% French Oak barrels. Remaining in oak for 16 months maturation, gaining the layered complexity now evident in the finished wine.
Wine
This elegant, medium bodies Cabernet Sauvignon gives you
all that you ask. A subtle blend of red berry aroma with a
hint of chocolate which tantalizes the taste buds and sets
the mood for an enjoyable indulgence.
The palate is assuaged by the blackcurrant fruit which have been integrated with aging in French Oak barrels for 12 months.
It can be drunk now or cellared for 10 years.
