Coonawarra, South Australia. Balnaves have used Cabernet Sauvignon grapes to make this modern sparkling red. Blended from selected parcels of more complex and elegant wines from eight vintages of reserve wines, this blend was tiraged in September 2006, then disgorged in February 2007 following 5 months on yeast lees.

Rich and complex with blackcurrant, blackberry and sweet earth mature Coonawarra Cabernet characters, this wine is ready to drink on release, however it will gain complexity and softness with careful cellaring.
