About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Cabernet SauvignonMargaret River, AustraliaA ripe plush Cabernet style showing classic cassis and cedar with vibrant acidity and fine grained tannins with excellent potential to age; the Heather Jean is named after one of the founders of Woodlands. The Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the original 1973 plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon and the wine also comprises a small proportion of Malbec and Cabernet Franc. Planted on gravel soils with a south facing aspect, the vineyard receives maximum sunlight, ideal for ripening Cabernet Sauvignon. The fruit is fermented in small open vats with a portion of the juice on skins for up to 40 days, before ageing in French oak for 20 months.
