Heartland ONE Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz

The best grapes from the finest vineyards in Langhorne Creek are recruited to create Heartland One. The fruit was harvested at night and then crushed into small open top fermenters. After 24 hours of skin contact, fermentation was commenced with our Rhône isolate yeast. Following 7 days of cool fermentation on skins and hand-plunging three times daily, the wine was transferred to oak hogsheads for malolactic transformation, racking and a further 14 months of maturation. The wine was then allowed to further age in bottle to give it a full 6 years of maturation!
