2015 Koomilya Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz
95 points James Halliday, winecompanion.com.au
80% 70yo cabernet, 20% shiraz, wild yeast-open fermented, 14 days on skins, pressed to 2500l French vats for 10 months maturation. An elegant medium-bodied wine with fine tannins woven through the red fruits of the bouquet and palate. Oak has been used to create texture, not flavour. This wine is 13.2% alcohol, not that stated on the label.
Overview:
The classic Australian blend: 80% Cabernet Sauvignon off our 70-year-old CP block and 20% Shiraz off the GT block.
The wine was naturally fermented in open top fermenters which is the key to this style of wine, giving it greater complexity.
