A mild spring set the vines up well. Early Summer was hot and dry, while significant rain in late January - early February relieved the strain on the vines. The mild weather during the final ripening period provided ideal conditions for full flavour development, while retaining natural acidity. The vines were well balanced with great colour and flavour.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur Sangiovese Cabernet is a blend of two parcels from two small vineyards in the Willunga foothills area of McLaren Vale. The Sangiovese and Cabernet were harvested and matured as separate parcels. The fruit was destemmed and crushed gently, then pumped over twice daily. The Cabernet was kept on skins for 8 days, while the Sangiovese remained on skins for 34 days, allowing the tannins to integrate and soften, while still providing length and structure. We kept the ferments was cool to retain the bright primary fruit characters. Following ferment, the batches were pressed and transferred into seasoned French oak barrels to mature for 12 months. Final blending took place well before bottling to ensure full integration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaker Tasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eColour:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDark ruby red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eBouquet:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDark cherries, cranberries, loads of spice and red berries, plus a hint of freshly ground coffee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003ePalate:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eA juicy palate of dark cherries, tapenade and cinnamon balanced with a firm tannin structure, giving length and a richness of texture. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAge Of Vines: Sangiovese 12 years, Cabernet 16 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarvested: Sangiovese: 6\/3\/19, Cabernet: 8\/3\/19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVarieties: Sangiovese 50%, Cabernet 50%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOak Treatment: 100% seasoned French oak for 12 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: McLaren Vale 100%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis: Alc: 14%, pH: 3.65, TA: 6.31g\/L, GF: 0.17g\/L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","published_at":"2020-09-01T13:21:11+10:00","created_at":"2020-09-01T13:18:36+10:00","vendor":"Down the Rabbit Hole","type":"Wine","tags":["Brand_Down the Rabbit Hole","Domestic Wine","Product_Wine","Red Wine","Type_Domestic","Type_Red Wine","Type_Sangiovese"],"price":3200,"price_min":3200,"price_max":34800,"available":true,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":34219040211076,"title":"Bottle(s)","option1":"Bottle(s)","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"sangiovese-cabernet-Bottle(s)","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Sangiovese Cabernet - Bottle(s)","public_title":"Bottle(s)","options":["Bottle(s)"],"price":3200,"weight":1330,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]},{"id":34219040243844,"title":"3 Pack","option1":"3 Pack","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"sangiovese-cabernet-3-Pack","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Sangiovese Cabernet - 3 Pack","public_title":"3 Pack","options":["3 Pack"],"price":8900,"weight":4000,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]},{"id":34219040276612,"title":"12 Pack","option1":"12 Pack","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"sangiovese-cabernet-12-Pack","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Sangiovese Cabernet - 12 Pack","public_title":"12 Pack","options":["12 Pack"],"price":34800,"weight":16000,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0366\/7388\/0196\/products\/DowntheRabbitHole-SangioveseCabernet-pubble.delivery.png?v=1599012226"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0366\/7388\/0196\/products\/DowntheRabbitHole-SangioveseCabernet-pubble.delivery.png?v=1599012226","options":["Bottle(s) or Pack(s)"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":8934166102148,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2160,"width":2160,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0366\/7388\/0196\/products\/DowntheRabbitHole-SangioveseCabernet-pubble.delivery.png?v=1598930418"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2160,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0366\/7388\/0196\/products\/DowntheRabbitHole-SangioveseCabernet-pubble.delivery.png?v=1598930418","width":2160}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 itemprop=\"name\" class=\"h2\"\u003eDOWN THE RABBIT HOLE - 2019 SANGIOVESE CABERNET\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wine-info\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wine-teaser\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wine-teaser\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this bottle awaits a wonderful experience.
