Oakridge864 Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
About this product
Simply named from our address at Coldstream, the 864 range is a showcase of highly detailed micro-selections from the most exceptional single vineyard sites in the Yarra Valley. Fresh looking with a deep, dark ruby colour and light purple hues. Pure cabernet. Fresh and lifted with the classic aromas of cassis, blackberry , violets and a light leafiness. Digging deeper, black cherry , red raspberries and notes of light cedar and wet tobacco that all swirl around that core of ripe fruit. This is elegant, medium bodied with a lightness of touch. Soft, velvet like tannins with just enough pippy crunch and firmness are there to reign in those fruit flavours and provide a sense of refreshment. Plus there’s a herbal nod that champions this variety before the red fruited acidity stretches the wine to its ultimate conclusion. Classic Yarra Cabernet. Taught, fragrant, lip smacking and refreshing.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
