Alkoomi Cabernet Sauvignon
Up front cassis flavors continue on the complex palate with rich, dark chocolate mingling with the smooth and silky tannin structure.
Family run and operated vineyard in Frankland River, Western Australia. The original 1220 hectare property was purchased by Sandy's grandparents, Vic and Netta Lange, in 1946 and initially operated as a mixed grain and livestock farm. It was grandma Netta who chose the name "Alkoomi" for their rugged property, on land over two million years old – a local Aboriginal word meaning "a place we chose".
Nine small, separate blocks of estate grown fruit harvested over a period of two weeks were selected for this vintage. The components were matured in twenty percent new French Oak for 14 months, the result being a wine of complexity through vineyard expression and time in oak.
