The Cumulus Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from the Gomersal sub region of the Barossa Valley, which is located on the Western Ridge of the region. Iron rich clays are the dominant soil type, acting to restrict yields and berry size and promoting wines with dense fruit and character and a firm structure.
Fermented using indigenous yeasts from the vineyard and left on skins for two weeks before basket pressing and maturation in small French oak casks for 24months which softens tannins and develop secondary characters.
