Taltarni Vineyards The Patron Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Blended from specially selected sites of both Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz at the Estate’s vineyard in the picturesque Pyrenees, this wine is scrupulously handcrafted to truly express not only the local terroir but also the absolute spirit of that which is Taltarni. The vines are meticulously tended in the quest for perfection; including a green harvest at verasion reducing the yield to 1 tonne per acre in order to truly represent our vineyard terroir. The cool nights and warm days of the Pyrenees provide the ideal conditions to allow slow ripening of the fruit. This wine represents the epitome of the Estate’s quality in terms of both vineyard and winemaking. It has structure and finesse along with drive and concentration and is the true essence of Taltarni Vineyards.
