Winemaking:

The 2007 C1 Cabernet Sauvignon was handpicked in Mid April before gentle crushing and fermentation with AWRI796 yeast for 14 days before basket pressing.  The wine was then racked to new St Martin French Oak Barrique from the Nevers’ forest in France to undergo Malo lactic fermentation and further maturation for 18 months. The wine was gently racked and neither fined or filtered prior to bottling.

Recommended Drinking 2013-2028.
