This 2021 vintage of De Bortoli's Woodfired Cabernet from Heathcote is a rich, bold red with a deep purple hue. Bursting with ripe blackberry and blueberry flavours, hints of cedar-wood and liquorice add a touch of class. The tannins are balanced, and the mouthfeel is soft and luxurious, with just a touch of that classic Cabernet taste. Truly an authentic expression of Heathcote's unique terroir.

Winery & Vintage Info

Woodfired wines are authentically Heathcote and perfectly crafted to accompany a chargrilled ribeye. Bold, brooding and delicious.

Vineyards from the Northern section of Heathcote were selected, mainly around Corop. The ancient red Cambrian soils of Northern Heathcote are ideal for dark fruited, rich, soft Cabernet.

Fruit for the De Bortoli Woodfired Heathcote Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 vintage were de-stemmed and fermented at 25-30°C over 8-12 days. Pressed and matured in vats and casks for 7 months. Racked and aerated regularly to soften the wine. Vineyards carefully selected for a balance of fruit weight and ripeness.

Lovely drinking now. Will age well and be even more complex and delicious over the next 3-8 years.
