Description

  • Dusty oak
  • Blackberry
  • Dark chocolate
  • Grippy tannins

"It's superbly expressed on the nose, showing cassis, toasty oak, olive and warm spice aromas, leading to a wonderfully weighted palate that's plump and flavoursome. Richly textured and mouth filling, it's splendidly structured by fine, chalky tannins, finishing long and sturdy. At its best: now to 2038" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Savoury aromatics unmistakably Cabernet Sauvignon hailing from Coonawarra Region. Aromas of dusty oak, blackcurrant and cassis. The palate is rich with black forrest fruits, blackberry and dark chocolate tannins. A hint of dried herbs and grippy tannins compliment the fruit and make you want to come back for more!

An exceptional vintage with ideal growing conditions and outstanding quality fruit! A later start to the vintage due to a mild summer facilitating a longer ripening period and a lovely balance in red wines. Dry conditions through summer resulted in small berries and thick skins in reds. Intense aromatics and bold flavours are a characteristic of the 2021 Coonawarra vintage.

Sourced from two vineyards that were planted with one on black and the other on red soils of the famed Coonawarra. All the fruit was picked during the early morning to retain colour and flavour retention and then crushed and fermented for a period of up to 10 days. Following primary fermentation the wine was pressed off into a small parcel of new but mostly into older oak for malolactic fermentation and maturation where it was held for a period of 10 months prior to blending and bottling.

Giant is crafted from premium regional South Australian fruit from established vineyards that deliver character and interest well above their size and weight. Hand-crafted and made with minimal additions and preservatives, these are wines made of the vineyard. The grapes are picked at optimal ripeness, minimally handled in the winery and fruit vibrancy is not hidden by non-essential artefact. Seeking first and foremost fruit expression, drinkability and to be a great accompaniment to food. Don’t let the size fool you, these are wines you’ll want to drink.

Food Pairing: served with a roast lamb, heirloom carrots and parsnip puree.
