WINE DESCRIPTION

Cottage Garden Shiraz-Cabernet is a crafted gem from South Eastern Australia, where the secrets to exceptional wines lie in managing yields and harvesting perfectly ripened grapes. This blend harmonizes the deep, robust character of Shiraz with the structured elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation and an aging period of about six months in the same tanks, ensuring a balanced and refined profile.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Cottage Garden Shiraz-Cabernet showcases a deep, dark ruby color with enticing aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and a hint of pepper from the Shiraz.The Cabernet adds layers of blackcurrant and chocolate, providing a richer texture and more defined structure. On the palate, the wine reveals a full-bodied character with vibrant fruit flavors and a subtle spiciness. The finish is smooth, with a pleasant blend of fruit and oak, accompanied by soft tannins and a touch of warmth.
