Tahbilk have the magic touch with old vines, custodians of a priceless prephylloxera block established in 1860 and productive to this day. Sourced from parcels averaging thirty to forty years of age, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz are treated to a traditional old world style of open ferments in an ancient collection of 150 year old oak vats, followed by extended maturation in a mix of the finest French and American oak. The perfect accompaniement to seared rib, kipflers and red wine jus.
Bright crimson colour. Mélange of ripe dark berry fruit bouquets, brambles and multilayered spice, nutmeg and star anise. Blackcurrant and plum fruit flavours, a weight of blackberry on the robust and expansive, generously flavoured palate, complex and intricate over a superb length of remarkably fine grained tannins.
