REVIEWS
"This is pinch-me-I'm-dreaming stuff. An outstanding multiple gold-medal cabernet at less than $30. Deep colour, cedar, violet and blackberry aromas with a high note of fresh herbs, the palate rich and fruit-sweet with soft tannins. Very smart and great value. Drinks well now. Will cellar to 20+ years."

"When I think Serafino, I think Italian varieties, so it’s nice to get surprised by a wine from a McLaren Vale staple. Serious feeling and looking bottle for a sub-$30 wine too.
Quite a bit of unexpected restraint too. Neat medium weight feel with good, deep, lavish concentrated fruit. Black plum and berry, cassis, touch of florals, sniff of cedar and sweet tobacco. Good bouquet. Soft texture, sweet fruit, mint highlights, sweet oak spice melted in. It’s a warming ooze of dark cabernet. Lots to like here for the generous representation of cabernet."

Winery & Vintage Info
Serafino black label wines are selected from our estate grown individual vineyard blocks in McLaren Vale. McLaren Vale has a diverse mix of soil types and vineyard orientation that enhance the complexity of Serafino Wines. Distinctive varietal and regional characters are captured in all the premium black label wines and we hope you will enjoy these wines as much as we do!
The Cabernet Sauvignon fruit is sourced from our Little Road and Malpas Road blocks in McLaren Vale, South Australia.
Once destemmed the grapes are fermented in small 4 tonne open fermenters. The temperature and extraction are monitored over a 7 day fermentation period.
Tannin and colour extraction is achieved through regular pump overs of the fermentation cap.
The wine is then pressed and allowed to finish the malolactic fermentation prior to spending up to 1 year in new and 1 year old French and American oak hogs heads. Winery Notes
