Leogate EstateGatecrasher Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Cabernet Sauvignon
About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Cabernet SauvignonThe Leogate Estate tradition of bringing grapes into the winery from districts external to the Hunter Valley has continued in 2021 for the winemaking of the “Gatecrasher” series.
This Cabernet Sauvignon was made from grapes grown on an isolated parcel from a smaller block on our certified organic vineyard located in the Central Ranges NSW. These magnificent vines were planted together in pairs, and the trunks trained over each other along the wire so producing fewer but richer bunches of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes per vine.
This unique viticultural practice has captured the intense flavours of black currants, black cherries, with hints of black pepper. Medium-aged fined French oak barrels have been used carefully over a full 18 months in order to allow this excellent example of Australian varietal Cabernet Sauvignon to emerge at its drinkable best.

Complex & enticing, the bouquet shows dark plum, sweet cherry, fine leather, smoked game and cedar notes, followed by a richly textured palate offering excellent weight and persistency. Tannins are fine and beautifully infused, finishing wonderfully long and engaging.
At its best: now to 2036
