This exceptional Cabernet Malbec blend showcases the outstanding potential of the Frankland River region to produce exceptional wines. The CW Ferguson wine also shares the same fruit resource as the famed Jack Mann wine. This is a wine of elegance and fruit power to be enjoyed at time of release, however, will repay careful cellaring over the next two decades.
TASTING NOTES
Our wine is vibrant red/purple with a garnet hue. Brooding and complex, with bright fruit characters of mulberry, plum, blackberry and cassis combined with cedar, spice, dark chocolate and hints of vanillin derived from the classy oak maturation. A wonderfully rich and complex wine. The full flavoured palate displays complex bramble fruit, dark chocolate and an imposing presence. A firm, but fine tannin structure supports a wine of great length and density. All at once rich, complex and perfectly balanced ensuring a long future with years ahead of it. Cellar for 15 years and beyond.
