6-Pack | 2007 | The Cachet | 5 Star Winery | Chain Of Ponds

Specifications:

A stunning blend of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. The iconic wine from Chain Of Ponds.

The Cachet commemorates the last day of Postal services at Chain of Ponds post office on 20 December 1973. Cachet honours the rich history of the Chain of Ponds area. It’s the selection of the absolute best barrels and parcels of fruit that the winemaker skilfully blends to make our top wine

Harvested at optimal maturity the grapes were destemmed and crushed into small open fermenters and lightly pumped over twice daily for the duration of the 8 day fermentation. The free run and pressings were put directly into barrels. The parcels were kept separate until malolactic fermentation was complete and blending during the subsequent racking was undertaken. Matured for 21 months to integrate oak tannins and fruit characters.

Deep cherry red with brick red hue.

Intense nose of blackcurrant and redcurrant fruits with smokiness and vanillan lift. Hints of mint and eucalypt balance out the black olive and deep fruit concentration.

Generous upfront fruit, plums and blackberry flavours with supporting spice and blackcurrant, a hint of mint and eucalypt adds a further dimension to the palate. Good savouriness from the oak is balanced and integrated and persists for some time on the palate. The acid balance is very lively giving good cellaring potential to the wine. Careful cellaring for up to 15 years will return the best rewards.
