Cabernet Malbec

Description
The fruit is harvested from an organic vineyard in the Wilyabrup sub region of Margaret River. The grapes were crushed, destemmed and then pumped into small overhead fermenters and inoculated with yeast immediately. The ferment was allowed to reach 30°C and pumped over with oxygen regularly during the peak of fermentation. This allows maximum extraction of the fine tannins, flavour and colour from the skins. Post fermentation - the free run wine was run off into seasoned French oak barrels and then the remaining solids were basket pressed into barrels and left to mature for 18 months. The varietal components were blended, minimally filtered prior to bottling.
