The Signature Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon & Shiraz
Cabernet Sauvignon & Shiraz 1989- Vintage quality: The vintage featured a mild to cool growing season and hot & wet weather, an unusual season due to the hot weather causing flavour maturity to be reached before normal sugar maturity. Awards and Accolades: 2 Gold
- Cellar guide: 8-10 years
- Last tasted: November 2003, Kevin Glastonbury, Winemaker
- Notes: Brick red in colour, briary and spice aromas with vanillin oak in the background. A firm, extracted wine that delivers plenty of stewed berry fruit flavours with a sweet mid-palate; the plentiful tannins lead into a drying finish. An "enormous wine" that will "certainly live".
