Winery & Vintage Info
Girt by Sea is the second Cabernet Sauvignon–dominant blend in the Voyager Estate range, designed to capture the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon and blend it to create a well-rounded, fresh and approachable wine. The soft, rounded mid-palate makes is perfect to be enjoyed upon release.
Excellent budburst was followed by a beautifully warm November with great flowering and fruit set. Summer was quite mild with just a few hot days in December then cool, dry conditions. The warmer March weather saw the reds ripen beautifully and they were harvested under clear, sunny skies with ripe, concentrated flavours and excellent fine-grained powdery tannins.
Fruit was de-stemmed but not crushed preserving whole berries, then fermented in a combination of open, static and concrete at below 27 ÌŠC with twice daily gentle hand plunging or pumpovers. Once pressed off skins, wines matured for 12 months in French oak with racking every three months to aid clarification then blended prior to bottling in June 2019. The 2018 Girt by Sea Cabernet Merlot comprises 6% Cabernet, 35% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot. Winery Notes
