Fat Bastard Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

This wine's intense aromas of blackcurrant and brambly wild fruit lead promisingly to rich flavours of ripe cassis and chocolate with a hint of earthiness. Balanced tannins and acidity ensure a well-defined structure and elegant finish.

in the vineyard : This Cabernet Sauvignon was made from specially selected grapes from the ultra-ripe harvest. From the start, our aim was to produce a Cabernet Sauvignon with intense fruit flavour and real character utilising quality grapes.

about the harvest: All fruit was hand harvested at optimum ripeness and gently pressed to retain aroma and flavour.

in the cellar : The wine was aged in small oak barrels, which added greater weight and complexity.

Oak maturation: 12 months
