Wine
Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard McAskill Cabernet Malbec is a tried and proven Clare Valley blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec, grown on the estate vineyard at White Hut.
The grapes are destemmed into small open fermenters where they are chilled and cold soaked for several days. Fermentation is with natural yeasts and lasts nearly two weeks.
The wine is then pressed and transferred into new and seasoned French barrels for 18 months of maturation. A tiny percentage of Shiraz completes the final blend.
Bright red, Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard McAskill Cabernet Malbec is medium bodied with red and blue fruit flavours and long, fine tannins. Cellaring potential is 12 years.
