The fruit is hand picked and then crushed to small open top fermenters. After fermentation the must is pressed to a combination of new and old French oak for approximately 28 months maturation. Each barrel is then assessed individually prior to being blended and bottled - unfined & unfiltered.
The Lenny’s Block Cabernet Sauvignon is deep red-purple in colour with an intense, complex & lifted nose of rose petals, floral notes, cassis, blackcurrant, aniseed, spice & cigar box.
The palate is medium to full bodied, rich and concentrated, whilst still retaining balance and freshness. The intense dark fruit flavours are carried on a framework of fine ripe tannin through a long silky finish.
