Eight at the Gate Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Patrick of Coonawarra Methode Eucalypt Cabernet
Welcome to ED.02 of our Methode Eucalypt. After 2020s raging success, we are so excited to release the next vintage. This trial tests the hypothesis that vineyards amongst gum trees take on some aroma and flavour of Eucalyptus. Grapes were mechanically harvested in close proximity to Red Gums into 1T bins. The resultant wine showed significantly increased Eucalyptus aroma and flavour. This matured into a distinctly Australian Cabernet Sauvignon that expresses the environment and place in which it was grown. Balanced minty Or Eucalyptus aromas and flavours add to the Cabernet Sauvignon’s complexity, creating a uniquely Australian wine. It is a wine that expresses terroir in the true sense of the word.
Winstar Cabernet Sauvignon Coonawarra
This wine reveals a deep rose-red hue, layered with Coonawarra’s signature hints of mint and blackberry. Aromas of blackcurrant and ripe forest berries rise from the glass, complemented by over 12 months of ageing in French oak. Subtle notes of cinnamon and toasted oak add warmth and complexity to the finish.
