Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 Coonawarra Leconfield

Leconfield Coonawarra was established in 1974 by noted oenologist, Sydney Hamilton.

During a winemaking career spanning nearly 60 years, Sydney was highly regarded for his contribution to the industry.

At the age of 76, Sydney Hamilton still yearned to make a classic Australian Cabernet Sauvignon and set himself the task of finding the right district in which to establish his own vineyard and winery and Leconfield Coonawarra was established.

Leconfield Cabernet Sauvignon has been the flagship of Leconfield since the first release in 1977.

Their philosophy is to produce a Cabernet Sauvignon displaying both depth and elegance where oak complexes and enhances the fruit but is not allowed to dominate.

Leconfield is situated in the heart of Australia’s famous Coonawarra with its rich Terra Rosa soil over limestone providing the ideal environment for growing premium Cabernet Sauvignon.

This Cabernet Sauignon has a deep, brooding, rich cassis nose overlayed with cinnamon, nutmeg and cedar through the influence of French oak.

It is a beautiful example of ripe varietal Cabernet Sauvignon.

Full Cabernet flavour bursts onto this rich palate.

The structure retains elegance while silky tannins provide the depth and persistence expected of a wine with this pedigree.

Will cellar for a decade and improve substantially.
