About the wine
A multi-regional organic red marvel
- This medium-bodied red was created from grapes from the Hooper’s own Mt. Benson vineyard as well as the Biodynamic Vineyard belonging to a family friend in Wrattonbully.
- Both vineyards sit on red sands, but with different climates. Wrattonbully is warmer, giving deep, aromatic wines, with a cherry and red berry lift. Mt. Benson is cooler, and gives the wine an aromatic backbone of blackcurrants, plum and dark berries.
- The result is a delightful drop that shows off the perfect mix of warm and cool climate Cabernet Sauvignon, with a lick vanilla, clove, and tobacco from the barrel. If it was from Coonawarra, you’d pay big prices, but these grapes are arguably better - for less!
Best before
This wine will mature nicely over the next 2-3 years but as always, those who can't wait will not be disappointed.
Serving advice
Don't rush into this wine, give it time to breathe and you will be rewarded with a greater layers and depth of character. One to share with family and friends or keep it all for yourself.
Food match
You can't go past lamb for this wine, whether it be roast, loin chops off the BBQ or slow cooked shanks it wont disappoint.
