Cork

Made only in high-quality vintages, this was the second release of The Caley, combining 55% Cabernet Sauvignon from Coonawarra with 45% Shiraz from the Barossa and Eden Valleys. In this combination, the Cabernet enjoys an assertive role, guiding the texture and flavour notes, before Shiraz chimes in to add mid-palate heft. Matured for 20 months in 41% new French Barriques, with the rest in older French oak barrels, it’s an opulent, rich red symphony with plum supported by blackberry, wrapped in a seamless palate that strikes glorious harmonious notes. The nose remains particularly enticing, rich and assured but still dancing energetically, while the long, unwavering acid line draws flavours to a beautifully tapered finish, still bound by confident but unobtrusive tannins.
