The 2023 SRS Cabernet Sauvignon is a benchmark example of classic Margaret River Cabernet. The nose is layered with ripe blackcurrant and dark mulberry, complemented by subtle notes of graphite and fine cedar. The palate is dense yet poised, delivering pure cassis fruit, silky but persistent tannins, and a finish of exceptional length and finesse. While approachable in its youth, this wine will reward careful cellaring for 15 years or more.
Selectively harvested fruit was sorted and transferred to a small open fermenter. After a brief cold soak, fermentation commenced with a Bordeaux yeast strain. Gentle pump-overs were used throughout to promote soft tannin extraction and aeration. Ferment temperatures were maintained around 26°C, finishing near 28°C before pressing. The wine was then matured for 14 months in French oak barriques (40% new, Bordeaux coopers), building structure, depth, and fine-grained tannins
