Basket Range Wine “Estate” Cabernet Blend 2023
Winery: Basket Range Wine
Region: Adelaide Hills - South Australia
Winemaker: Sholto & Louis Roderick
Varietal(s): 80% Cabernet Sauvignon 10% Merlot 10% Petit Verdot
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (80%), Merlot (10%) and Petit Verdot (10%). These varieties were the first planted by my Sholto’s father, Louis, in 1980 in the original vineyard and subsequently planted in the new adjacent vineyard in the early 2000s. It was the first blend under the Basket Range Wine label.
The north-facing plantings where the afternoon sun allows for fruit with maturity of ripeness with the elegance of the Adelaide Hills. In the cooler year of 2023, the picking of these varieties was later than usual, giving a more delicate framework with fruit ripeness.
Winemaking: each component was harvested within the last two weeks of vintage, with the Merlot picked slightly before the Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. 100% destemming (whole berry) of the fruit before fermentation in 1500L and 2000L vats for 2-3 weeks with gentle pump overs for this duration for cap management. Maturation in French barriques (15% new) for 10 months.
