2018 Silvern
The Silvern “a Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon” was crafted to be a beautiful example of an elegant dry red. Fermentation was in both stainless steel tanks and oak barrels then aged for a further six months with minimal oak contact. It was then bottled as a young red to retain freshness.
A bright dark purple / red colour with vibrant fruit aromas and sweet dark berry fruit flavours on the plump palate with fine tannins on the finish.
Winemakers: Bruce Gregory & Michael Marcus
