Hesketh Regional Selections Coonawarra Cabernet 2021 6Pack 14.5% 750ML
TASTING NOTES
APPEARANCE
Deep, rich red with garnet core.
AROMA
Detailed and balanced with wafts of dark brambly fruits and black plum. Notes of savoury spice and old leather.
PALATE
Beautifully dark and complex, with fine tannin and an elegant finish.
VINIFICATION
Majority of the blend remained on skins for 12 days, but a small portion was treated to an extended maceration of 28 days to ensure tannin and colour extraction to support long-term cellaring. Following fermentation, the blend was barreled down to predominantly old French Barriques and Hogshead barrels (10% new oak) for 18 months maturation.
MATURATION
18 months.
VINTAGE NOTES
Picking occured in the middle of April following an idyllic cool and dry ripening season, which resulted in fruit with strong colours, flavours and complexity.
