Balnaves of Coonawarra is a small family owned and operated winery whose focus is on the production of small parcels of high quality wine. The vines were planted in 1975, however, the first wines were not released under the Balnaves label until 1990. The 1997 Balnaves Cabernet Sauvignon was made from Balnaves Old Morris vineyard and Walker blocks in Coonawarra. The wine received extended post (4 weeks) fermentation on skins prior to pressing, giving the wine its fine tannin structure. Opaque crimson colour. The nose displays aromas of cedar, blackcurrant, violet and toasted oak. Outstanding palate, mouthfilling flavours with superb concentrated fruit and excellent integration with new and one year old French Oak. Flavours of blackcurrant, cedar and chocolate explode in the mouth and whilst tightly knit the tannins are very fine and create a perfect balance with the component parts. Very long blackcurrant, cedar, liquorice and spice aftertaste. Cellar 8-10 years.
