Thompson Estate

The Specialist Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon

The fruit was tenderly harvested from select rows from our best Cabernet Sauvignon block and processed into red fermenters where they are gently pumped over three times a day during fermentation to maximize colour extraction. When fermentation was complete, the wine was left on skins for an additional 7 days to develop some extra complexity before being transferred to a selection of fine French barriques and matured for 18 months. After maturation, only the wines from the best performing barrels are selected to make this blend.
