Our Wines
Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
$45.00
Grown on loose gravel, these vines weathered the early rain in February to produce intensely flavourful and ripe fruit by the end of the season. Resulting in a full-bodied, deep ruby red vintage, with a slight purple hue. Flavours of ripe blackberry and dark cherry and intense aromas of blackcurrant and plum, complemented by hints of cedar. The tannins are firm yet velvety, providing structure, while the acidity is well-balanced, giving freshness. The finish is long and expressive, with lingering notes of dark chocolate and spice.
This is our one and only non-organic Stonecroft wine.
