Description
The 2021 is the twenty first release of this this delicious Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
It may be just a tiny little parcel of Cabernet planted in the 1940s, however what a powerful little flavour packed expression it is! The Ashmead block has consistently produced small parcels of excellent quality fruit for several years. The block was almost destroyed in 1997 to make way for higher yielding vines, however the family made the decision to promote the vineyard to a higher destiny ââ‚?thus the Ashmead.
