(12x75cl) 2015The Farr Vintners 2015 stands as a testament to exceptional winemaking heritage. Crafted in the prestigious Napa Valley, this vintage benefits from Farr Vintners' commitment to sustainable viticulture and meticulous attention to detail. Hand-harvested Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from prime estates are carefully selected to ensure optimal ripeness and flavour concentration. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, preserving the wine’s vibrant fruit notes while allowing for gentle extraction of tannins. Subsequently, the wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, imparting subtle layers of vanilla and spice without overshadowing the varietal character. The 2015 vintage presents a deep ruby hue, with an intricate nose of blackberry, cassis, and hints of cedar. On the palate, it offers a full-bodied and balanced experience, featuring ripe dark fruits, elegant tannins, and a lingering, polished finish. Farr Vintners’ dedication to quality and tradition is beautifully encapsulated in this distinguished 2015 release, making it a prized addition for discerning collectors.
