Description

Indulge in the luxurious experience of our 2021 Carrodus Cabernet Sauvignon, a wine that embodies elegance and finesse. From the moment it touches your lips, you'll be greeted by the enticing allure of blackcurrant fruits, complemented by a hint of iodine intrigue and a lift of bay leaf. This wine exudes a wonderful energy, showcasing fruit purity and precision in every sip.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, our Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed, and individually berry sorted before gently crushed into our Yarra Yering 600kg open fermenters. Hand-plunged twice daily, the wine undergoes fermentation until complete, with some extended time on skins to ensure the tannins soften to perfection. Maturation takes place in French oak Bordeaux-shaped barrels, with 40% new oak, over 15 months, culminating in a wine of exceptional quality and depth.

Accolades abound for this extraordinary vintage, with notable critics awarding it the highest praise!

Derived exclusively from the 1969 planted No. 1 Cabernet Sauvignon vines, sourced from the southwest corner of our vineyard, this wine reflects the unique terroir of the Yarra Valley. Slow to mature and ripen, this corner yields grapes of exceptional character, resulting in a wine that speaks of its origins with every sip.
