TASTING NOTES

Secret Deal Old Vines Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a distinguished expression of one of Australia’s most celebrated wine regions. Crafted from old vine material sourced exclusively from the Wilgha and Neilson’s Block vineyards, this wine captures the essence of the famed Terra Rossa soil that defines Coonawarra’s unique terroir.

This 2022 vintage showcases the hallmark characteristics of a classic Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, delivering intense cassis and dark berry fruit flavors balanced by a refined structure and soft, approachable tannins. The wine’s maturation in French oak barrels enhances its complexity and depth, contributing subtle spice and vanilla notes without overpowering the pure fruit expression.

Originating from a vineyard established in 1975 on land that was part of the original Coonawarra Fruit Colony founded in 1890, this wine carries a rich heritage. The winery’s legacy includes winning the prestigious 1985 Jimmy Watson Trophy, cementing its reputation for quality and consistency on both national and international stages.

The 2022 vintage benefits from superb growing conditions in Coonawarra, known for its cool climate and distinctive Terra Rossa soil, which together produce wines with vibrant fruit concentration and firm, age-worthy structure. This Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to cellar gracefully for at least a decade, evolving beautifully with time.

A magnificent rendition, the wine shows dark fruit intensity, fennel, tobacco, violet, and stylish oak aromas on the nose. The concentrated palate exhibits terrific depth and richly textured mouthfeel, backed by refined texture and fine-grained tannins. Wonderfully harmonious and robust with a great line and length.
