Notes

HEARTLAND ONE CABERNET SAUVIGNON SHIRAZ 2012: This densely purple wine stains the glass with rich colour. The powerful dark fruit is complimented by hints of pepper and spice. The structure of oak is evident on the palate, but finely poised to compliment the astonishing intensity of black fruit and velvety texture of this commanding wine. If you are looking for a great red to drink or age, this is the One.The best grapes from the finest vineyards in Langhorne Creek are recruited to create Heartland One. The fruit was harvested at night and then crushed to small open top stainless steel fermenters. After 24 hours of skin contact, fermentation was commenced with our Rhône isolate yeast. Following 8 days of cool fermentation on skins and hand-plunging three times daily, the wine was transferred to new oak hogsheads (both French and American) for malolactic transformation, racking and a further 14 months of maturation.Variety: 63% Cabernet Sauvignon and 37% ShirazMaturation Vessel: French and American oakAge of vines: 30 years + hogsheads in combinationAge of barrels: NewTime in barrel: 14 monthsCellaring potential: 15 years or moreSuitable for vegans: Yes
