Snake + Herring Outshined Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 14% 750ml

Expert Review:
James Halliday- 93 points, Wild-yeast ferment and wild mlf, pressed direct to oak, 25 days on skins post-ferment, followed by maturation in 500L puncheons (48% new). What a pretty nose! A harmonious and choral wine, singing of raspberry, blackberry, red apple skin, cassis and red licorice. There is pomegranate and pink peppercorn in there, too. The palate is layered and satisfying, the length of flavour the only quibble. A lovely, modern, classy cabernet. (Erin Larkin)

The Snake + Herring brand is a wine safari searching for remarkable grapes from West Australian Vineyards. The Search has begun, and our grape balloon manned by Snake (our winemaker) and Herring (our navigator) represent this. The southwest of WA is a viticultural treasure map as there are vineyard jewels scattered throughout. We seek for blocks within vineyards that really shine; they may seem dull when diluted by the bordering lesser dirt. The search is to find and polish these often overlooked gems and present a treasure chest of different jewels: pristine, crystalline Rieslings; crisp, radiant, multi-faceted Chardonnays; alluring, perfumed Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon; dark, exotic, hedonistic Shiraz; brilliant, regal displays of Cabernets and blends.
