Meinert Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Meinert Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Winemaking

Fermented with natural yeasts, made in classic low intervention manner, no extended skin maceration. Aged for 24 months in new (15%), second and third fill French Oak barrels. In keeping with a naturalist approach to winemaking, this wine is lightly filtered prior bottling in the spring of 2019 and as such a harmless sediment may develop over time.

Tasting Notes

Dense deep fresh red colour. The nose displays red berries, typical Cabernet herbs, spicy toasty oak and tobacco. Mouth filling but soft on entry, lingers gently and long on the finish.
