This 60% Cabernet Franc, 40% Merlot blend was aged 16 months in French oak barrels. The wine shows good concentration of both fruit and colour with blackberry, vanilla and spice on the palate.

    Cooper’s Hawk Riesling 2010 Review

    3.67 overall score

    Winemaker’s Notes:
    A single varietal estate bottled Riesling, with the perfect amount of acidity left naturally behind during fermentation to ensure the fresh crisp style of wine this grape is meant to be. Fermented slow and cold, the wine has kept all it’s characteristics of the unique terroir of the estate’s rich soil.

    Tasting Notes:
    Rose petal tea with a hint of natural sugar left behind to balance the crisp acidity alluding to lemongrass.

    Winemaker’s Notes:
    Hand picked from single varietal estate vineyard this Chardonnay is quality right from bud break to the bottle. This wine acquired a higher concentration of fruit to create a full bodied flavour bursting with fruit. The wine was cold fermented for 12 days, preserving all elements but the sugar.

    Tasting Notes:
    Caramel apple with lemon peel and tropical fruit on it’s long clean finish.
