2020 The Modern
“The Modern shows what can be done with Cabernet when we allow its inherent freshness to shine. Lovely to drink as a younger wine, but with depth of tannin to age gracefully. Fresh and bright with flair.”
TIM SHAND, CHIEF WINEMAKER

Vineyard Notes
A close to perfect growing season with a warm and dry spring providing excellent conditions for flowering. One of our hottest Decembers on record, advancing fruit development. A slightly milder January was perfect for steady ripening and led to an early red harvest with fruit in exceptional condition with intense colour, concentration and silky, fine, soft tannins.
