Vinifera Cabernet Sauvignon from Mudgee is a certified organic, full‑bodied red that leans into rich, dark fruit with a classic regional cabernet profile of power, freshness and structure. It sits as the estate’s flagship cabernet style and has drawn strong critical praise for value and varietal character.

In the glass you can expect blackberries in syrup, black cherries and cassis, layered with brooding caraway spice, cedar, a forest‑floor/apothecary complexity and a hint of homemade blackberry pie. The palate is packed with dark plum and blackcurrant fruit sweetness, grainy coffee‑grind savouriness and astute, well‑judged tannins, all carried on medium‑plus acidity that keeps it fresh and food‑friendly despite its richness.

Vinifera Organic Cabernet Sauvignon is a natural match for beef and venison – think beef cheek ragù, grilled rib‑eye, lamb shanks, slow‑cooked stews or hard, aged cheeses where its dense fruit and grainy tannin structure really shine. With a 91‑point Halliday rating and the track record of earlier vintages ageing comfortably over a decade, it’s drinking very well now but will happily develop further complexity in the cellar.
