The Abbey Rock Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is a testament to the unique terroir of Coonawarra, a cool-climate region renowned for producing world-class, elegant wines. Abbey Rock Wines is dedicated to creating small-batch, hand-crafted wines that showcase the pure essence of the land, with their flagship being the King of Coonawarra—Cabernet Sauvignon.
Sourced from older, low-yielding vineyards, the fruit is hand-picked in small batches, allowing the team to focus on quality and optimal flavour extraction. The grapes spend extended time on skins, enhancing the deep fruit flavours before maturing in French oak barrels for added complexity. The wine undergoes minimal fining and filtration, ensuring the purity of the fruit shines through.
In the glass, the Abbey Rock Cabernet Sauvignon reveals a deep crimson hue with a violet edge. On the nose, it offers dark berry characters, with blackberry, red fruits, and a touch of capsicum. The palate is fruit-forward and well-rounded, with fine-grained tannins and the influence of refined oak. The wine’s structure and balance make it ideal for drinking now, or with further aging, allowing the complexity to evolve over time.
Awarded 95 points by Wine Showcase Magazine and Gold Medal Winner, this wine exemplifies the quality and elegance that Coonawarra is famous for. Best enjoyed with roast lamb, beef dishes, or hard cheeses, this wine offers a great expression of Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon.
